“(Victory Lane) is definitely the place I want to be,” May told FloRacing after his victory. “I spend a lot of time here during the year, but when Speedweeks comes around, the level of these guys is unbelievable. It’s the greatest teams in the country we’re racing against. I knew I was going to have to fight hard early and try to check out because I knew they’d be coming quick.”
