• The last time Michael Annett raced at Phoenix Raceway, he
came away with a fourth-place finish in the 2020 season
finale. It was his best finish at the 1-mile oval in 17 starts.
• Tracks measuring 1 mile in the NASCAR Xfinity Series have
been good for Annett. In three of his last four races on
such tracks, Annett has finished in the top 10.
• At Phoenix, Annett has been fast and consistent,
completing 98.6 percent of the laps in his 17 starts with
the top-five in 2020 and seven finishes inside the top 10.
• Racing out West agrees with Annett. In his last seven starts
west of the Mississippi, Annett has averaged a finish of 6.2
with a pair of top-five finishes and seven top-10s.
“We were pretty good at Las Vegas and got our first top 10
of the season after some pretty awful luck so far. The Pilot
Flying J Chevrolet was fast when it counted, the same way
it was last year at Phoenix, and we scored points in both
segments for the first time this year. That’s a good track for
us and we need to do well to keep the momentum
building. I’m proud of Mike Bumgarner (crew chief) and all
the No. 1 guys for giving me great Chevrolets every week.
It’s all about momentum now.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILLL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
