Chatting with Matt Crafton…
“The next two races are important to our No. 88 Ideal Door / Menards Ford F-150 team’s Championship run. I love coming to Texas and have had quite a bit of success at the track, and I think that will help us. With the repave, the track has aged, but I think it’s a great track for us to get to Victory Lane this weekend.”

Texas Tough… Making 33 starts in 18 NCWTS seasons with ThorSport Racing at Texas Motor Speedway, 35 total in his series career, Crafton has amassed two wins (2014, 2015), three poles, 15 top-five and 24 top-10 finishes. Completing 97.4% laps (5,380 out of 5,521 laps) over the years, a win this weekend would not only be Crafton’s third at the track, but also would solidify his spot in the series’ Championship 4 and a shot at his third driver’s title.
