Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway | Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner. 300 Race Recap: In the most recent NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway, AM Racing successfully made their series’ debut with Moffitt at the “World Center of Racing”
After qualifying on speed in the 32nd position, Moffitt maneuvered his No. 25 AM Technical Solutions Ford Mustang through the field and drafted inside the top-five where he hovered for a majority of the race until late-race contact from another driver caused a flat tire sending Moffitt to pit road for an unscheduled stop.
The setback left few laps for the Statesville, N.C.-based team to recover leaving the team with a 29th-place finish.
From the Pit Box: Industry veteran Joe Williams is Brett Moffit’s crew chief.
He will crew chief his 100th NASCAR Xfinity Series race as crew chief on Saturday afternoon and his third race at the 2.0-mile speedway.
Williams is the defending race-winning crew chief after steering Cole Custer to victory last February for SS GreenLight Racing with Jeff Lefcourt first career victory in the sport.

Brett Moffitt Quoteboard:
On Auto Club Speedway: “Auto Club has been a decent track for me over the years but I have high hopes for this weekend’s race. Joe (Williams Jr.) has been working hard on our No. 25 AM Technical Solutions Ford Mustang and knowing he won that race last year brings some excitement to our AM Racing team.
“We ran strong at Daytona but did not get the finish we deserved. I hope we are able to earn the finish I know our team deserves.”
On 2023 Season Outlook: “There has been so much effort put into the 2023 NASCAR Xfinity Series season and honestly, I am so excited about it. I cannot thank everyone on the AM Racing team enough for the opportunity and for taking a chance on me to lead them in the inaugural year.
“I believe we will exceed everyone’s expectations and not only will we challenge for race wins, but we will achieve them and contend for the 2023 Xfinity Series championship.”
