Matt Mills on Friday’s Race at Daytona International Speedway: “We started the day off pretty good,” said Mills. “After the initial contact we had to rethink our strategy and hang back a little before the truck began to lose power. Unfortunately, we just couldn’t recover. I’m thankful for everyone at Niece, J.F. Electric and Utilitra and am ready for Atlanta.”

Race Recap: Mills and the No. 42 J.F. Electric/Utilitra team advanced to the final round of qualifying, ending up with a fourth-place starting spot for Friday night’s race.
