Marcos Ambrose is looking forward to his return to Michigan International Speedway in the Carfax 250 in Brooklyn, Michigan this weekend.
Ambrose qualified second in only his seventh NASCAR event in June last year at the Michigan oval in the 2006 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
The Australian posted a solid 26th place finish on that occasion and this time around Ambrose is looking to be among the front-runners on the final lap of the race rather than the first.
I ran at Michigan in the Truck Series and qualified second and had my first experience with drafting and aerodynamics in a truck, he noted. It was a real experience for me and we scored a solid finish.
It's a great race track. I can't wait to get back there. I feel comfortable around the place. I'm looking forward to it.
The corners are big, long corners. It's fast. It's a fast race track with a lot of drafting down the front straight especially in a truck and it's got multiple grooves and is a great race track. It's one of the best ovals that I've been to.
You don't have to sit behind a guy and wait for him to make a mistake; you can take another line and buzz by him, if you've got the speed and the handling on the car.
So, it's a great race track and a really fun place to race. I haven't been there in a Busch car, so I don't quite know what to expect on that deal, but we expect three or four-wide racing most laps.
Ambrose is currently eighth in the NASCAR Busch Series standings after strong finishes recently on the last two road course events.
