- Matt Mills' Post-Race Thoughts:
“We had a tough night in Homestead, but I’m proud of the effort our J.F. Electric / Utilitra team gave to rebound there at the end. I think our truck was handling pretty good there in the last stage, but it was hard to overcome the dirty air. To come out of here with a top-15 is a lot better than how we ended up last time we came to Homestead. We’ll keep working on it and prepare for a good run in Martinsville.”
