Matt Kenseth is ready for the challenge of competing at Texas Motor Speedway this weekend, though he admits that it hasn’t exactly been his best track lately.
The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series heads into its first Saturday night showdown of the season, the Duck Commander 500 at Texas (7:30 p.m. ET, Fox; qualifying 2:45 p.m. ET Friday). Kenseth is preparing for the race at a track where he has won twice, in 2002 and 2011. He has been close in other races there, as he points out, which is why he has an average finish of 9.5 at the track.
