“We had a great night, we had to tag all night, but the track held up good, and we were able to pull off a ninth-place finish with a full field of 21 cars,” said Matthews. “Thanks to my family and the McDonald’s for all their help.”
Matthews makes his Wing Micro Sprint debut at Canyon Speedway Park's March Meltdown on Saturday night.
