On the Car
Fastenal is currently in its eighth season as a primary partner in the MENCS for Roush Fenway. They spent three years on the No. 99 before jumping over to the No. 17 entry, and were the primary partner on the No. 60 Xfinity team that captured the owner’s championship in 2011.
So Far in 2019
Stenhouse has scored one top-10 in the first four races. He currently sits 10th in driver point standings and has an average starting position of 8.5 and average finish of 12.5.
Stenhouse Jr. on racing at Auto Club:
“Auto Club is a rough two-mile track and is different than any track we’ve raced at so far this season. We had a strong weekend at Las Vegas with the new package so I’m looking for that to translate to
this weekend. We’ve been showing up each weekend with fast cars as soon as we roll them off the truck. Last year, we had a loose wheel which caused us a decent finish so if we can execute on pit-road and keep dialing our Fastenal Ford in, I’m certain we will end this west
coast swing on a strong note.”
