Zane Smith Notes

• The Aaron's Dream Machine is back in action as the NASCAR Cup Series heads to the Homestead-Miami Speedway. The 267-lap event will be the second race of the season on an intermediate 1.5-mile track.

• After a 23rd place finish at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Smith sits 29th in the NASCAR Cup Series Driver Championship points standings. Smith and Crew Chief Ryan Bergenty will now shift their focus to Homestead and look for a solid run to put them within the top-25 points position.

• "I always enjoy going to Homestead," said Smith. Ripping the fence is such an awesome feeling, and I have had some success there in the Truck Series with a second-place in 2022. Hopefully, we can recreate that success with a solid run this weekend.
