Michael Annett on Going to Kentucky: “I’m excited to be going back to Kentucky Speedway for the second time this year. I got my first career top-five finish at Kentucky back in June, so it’s a special place for me. It’s a fast 1.5-mile track and I typically run well there. We’ve been on a pretty good roll here lately with four-consecutive top-10 finishes, and it’s time we step it up a notch and bring home a win. We’ve got a few races left to try and gain some points, and we are really trying to snag that fifth spot. A victory this weekend in our Pilot flying J Ford would go a long way in helping us to achieve that goal.”
