Snider Makes First-Career Daytona Start

Myatt Snider will kick off the 2017 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season Friday night at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway behind the wheel of the No. 51 Louisiana Hot Sauce Toyota Tundra in the NextEra Energy Resources 250. Daytona will mark Snider’s first start for Kyle Busch Motorsports (KBM), and his first start on a superspeedway. Snider is one of four drivers who will pilot the No. 51 Toyota Tundra throughout the 2017 season. He will compete in eight races, sharing the Tundra with owner-driver Kyle Busch, Harrison Burton and Todd Gilliland.
 
The 22-year-old is scheduled to race at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth June 9 and Nov. 3, Kentucky Speedway in Sparta July 6, Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Ill., Sept. 15, Las Vegas (Nev.) Motor Speedway Sept. 30, Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway Oct. 14 and Homestead-Miami (Fla.) Speedway Nov. 17.
 
Snider put his name on the national motorsports map in May of 2016 when he led 35 laps en route to victory in his ARCA Racing Series debut at Toledo (Ohio) Speedway. The North Carolina native collected one win, 68 laps led, three top-five and five top-10 finishes resulting in an average finish of 13.8 across nine ARCA starts last season. He made his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut for AM Racing at Phoenix (Ariz.) International Raceway in November where he started 19th and finished on the lead lap in the 17th spot.
 
When Snider hits the track, he will don the colors of his sponsor Louisiana Hot Sauce. Louisiana Hot Sauce is made in New Iberia, Louisiana. Over the years, the company has expanded, but they have stayed true to a promise made over eighty years ago to create a perfectly balanced sauce that is “not too hot, not too mild”. Friday night when the lights come on and the engines start, Snider hopes he can start his rookie season with a victory at the World Center of Racing.
