2019 Xfinity Series Season Holding Strong for Michael Annett

ichael is running a different number this year, switching from No. 5 to No. 1., resembling the iconic Harrold Annett owned, TMC sponsored No. 1 sprint car Sammy Swindell drove for several years in the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series. In an article published by Speed Sport back in February, Michael reflects on his memories of the sprinter. “There’s so much history with that car,” he says. “Being able to acquire the No. 1 this year just brings everything full-circle for me.” Michael opened 2019 in a big way by winning the season-opening NASCAR Racing Experience 300 for the NASCAR Xfinity Series in Daytona. Since then, Michael has continued his great season six top 10 finishes, including 5th place in Vegas, 8th in Phoenix and 6th in Texas. The TMC paint scheme made it’s debut in late April in Talladega. After winning his first pole in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, leading 10 laps and having a great shot at his second straight restrictor-plate victory, Michael Annett’s day ended in the garage as the victim of a typical Talladega Superspeedway crash. The damage to his No. 1 TMC Transportation Chevrolet was significant and could not be repaired in time to rejoin the 113-lap event. The following week at Dover International Speedway, Michael got back on track with a 10th place finish. We are excited to continue our partnership with Michael and JR Motorsports, and look forward to maintaining a successful season! <
