LEICHT LOOKS TO BUILD OFF MOMENTUM FROM KENTUCKY-

Stephen Leicht, driver of the No. 90 CitiFinancial Ford scored his first career top-10 last weekend at Kentucky Speedway. This weekend Leicht will make his eighth NASCAR Busch Series start on the relatively flat Milwaukee Mile. It will be Leicht's first NASCAR Busch Series start at the Milwaukee Mile. However, he has competed in the ASA Touring Series there.

LEICHT'S QUOTES-

"I'm looking forward to running a few consecutive races. The more seat time you can get the better. I learned a lot running every lap last weekend. Finishing in the top-10 in Kentucky is a real confidence builder for the CitiFinancial team going into this weekend. The team has really been jelling and I think they have hit on something setup wise. It will be nice to take some of the momentum from Kentucky to Milwaukee."

CHASSIS INFORMATION-The CitiFinancial team is taking chassis No.B6 to Milwaukee. This is the same chassis that competed at Richmond (started 32nd, finished 18th), Phoenix (started 38th, finished 32nd) and Bristol (started 21st, finished 24th).

LAST WEEKEND- After starting 28th, rookie Leicht brought home a career best 10th-place finish Saturday night at Kentucky Speedway for the running of the Meijer 300. The finish also marked the second top-10 of the season for the No. 90 team.

DID YOU KNOW- Leicht lived just outside of Milwaukee for his last two seasons of competition in the ASA Late Models Series.

POINTS- The No. 90 team moved up one position to 29thin the owner standings. They are now 119 points behind 25thplace.
