MYATT SNIDER QUOTE:
Martinsville Speedway is one of your favorite tracks. What are you looking for on Saturday?
“Hopefully, there is no rain in the forecast and the race can stay at night. Earlier this year, our TaxSlayer Camaro showed a ton of speed in the race at night, but once the rain came and we were postponed to the next day, our car wasn’t the same in the sunshine. Our team has learned a lot of lessons since that race, so I’m looking forward to getting on track. Our No. 2 Chevrolet will be well prepared heading into the race and that should set us up in a solid position right from the green flag. I personally have been chasing after the clock since 2013 and hopefully this is the year that I can pull it off. It would mean a lot to win at Martinsville.”
