Jay Guy said on Sirius XM NASCAR Radio, “We’re going to spend some time and enjoy the holidays with our families before getting back to work and getting ready for Daytona.” “All of those things take time to get them built so they’re ready to go if we need it,” he continued, adding that “we’re going to have two cars in the trailer down there in case we hurt one.”
We anticipate taking a little vacation here before getting back to business as usual. Greg Biffle was the last member of the NY Racing Team to start the Daytona 500 in 2022.
