What are you looking forward to in Saturday’s Xfinity Series race at Michigan?

“It’s always a fun time racing with the JGR Xfinity guys. Our 20 team is mostly the same guys I worked with last year too, so we’ve had a lot of success working together. It’s bittersweet to be my last start of the year with those guys, but I hope we can go out on a high note and repeat what we did last year at Michigan.”
