Great news today! The Wood Brothers announced they will return to racing full time next season with Ryan Blaney as the driver and Ford/Motorcraft/Quick Lane as the anchor sponsors. Great to see this iconic team back full time.

Jeff has them right where he wants them !!!
Did you get a chance to see qualifying? He made a great 2nd lap after a slow 1st one to stay alive to get to round 2. Used Logano's line on the track to get in. Clutch lap for sure. Harvick had to go 2 laps in round 2 and couldn't get it done. Hopefully Gordons performance translates on Sunday.

Last weekend in Phoenix there were 4 jet dryers and 8 Air Titans with 2 vacuum trucks. Quite an increase in resources!
