In four previous NXS starts at Phoenix, Daniel Hemric has
earned two top fives and four top 10s, with a best finish of
second coming in the November 2018 event.
• Hemric has also made a combined five starts in the Valley
of the Sun between the NASCAR Cup Series and the
NASCAR Gander Outdoors & RV Truck Series.
• In 10 starts on tracks one mile in length in the NXS, Hemric
has recorded four top fives, seven top 10s and an average
finish of 7.0.
• Through his first two starts behind the wheel of the No. 8
Chevrolet for JRM, Hemric has earned a best finish of
seventh and led for 10 laps.
“I’ve always enjoyed racing at Phoenix. We’ve had some
strong runs there in the past in the Xfinity Series and I feel
like we can do that again this weekend with our Poppy
Bank Chevrolet. I feel like we made a lot of positive gains
last week in Fontana and hopefully we can continue that
once we unload on Friday. I know that Taylor (Moyer, crew
chief) and everyone on this No. 8 team had some really
good runs at Phoenix last year which gives me a ton of
confidence that we can do that this year.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
