Brett Moffitt Front Row Motorsports Brickyard 400 Preview

“I got a little experience at Indy last year. It’s a really cool racetrack. Just with the heritage and the history behind it, it’s really neat to be out there. As a driver, it’s tough, though. It’s narrow. The first time there last year, going into Turn 1, I was a little bit nervous. I’m not going to lie. Going in there, turning the wheel before you ever lift into a 90-degree corner, it was a little sketchy. But that’s part of what makes it a fun track.

“This is going to be a big weekend with our partner CSX. We’ve got their paint scheme on the car for the race weekend, and we’re going to have a special visit with the employees at a CSX rail yard while we’re in town. We’re also hosting a pretty big group of FFA members at the race on Sunday, so we’re really looking forward to the whole weekend.”

JUST THE FACTS: Sunday’s race will be Moffitt’s first Sprint Cup start at Indianapolis Motor Speedway … Moffitt earned his second straight Sunoco Rookie of the Race award last week at New Hampshire Motor Speedway … The CSX colors return to the No. 34 Ford for the Brickyard race, promoting the “Play It Safe” railroad safety message.
