• Michael Annett heads to Phoenix seeking his third straight
top-10 finish on the 1-mile desert oval after recording
eighth- and ninth-place results in the two 2019 events
there.
• Annett’s best finish at Phoenix is seventh in 2012, and half
of his six top-10 results there have come in the Pilot Flying
J Chevrolet at JR Motorsports.
• Annett has an affinity for 1-mile tracks in the NASCAR
Xfinity Series. His average finishes—14.8 at Phoenix, 12.7
at Dover and 13.0 at New Hampshire—are combined with
a 99.3 percent laps completed standard on the short ovals.
“I love racing at Phoenix and the other 1-mile ovals, and
our performance shows that. We’ve run in the top 10 the
last two times out there, and we need a solid performance.
We had another fast Pilot Flying J Chevrolet at California,
but once again got caught in someone else’s mess. Despite
the damage, we were able to overcome it and get a
reasonable finish. We’re aiming for a lot better result this
weekend.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDECK!
