He went on to say that Road America is one of his favorite tracks followed by Watkins Glen.McDowell said:“I think it’s going to take a win for us to get in. I’m not delusional about that. Road America is probably one of my best tracks. Watkins Glen is probably my second, and if I had to do it at Daytona, we’ve got a shot at doing it there. I don’t want to wait until that last race to do it.”The Phoenix, Arizona native feels things are moving in the right direction, but at the same time he said winning a Cup race is never an easy job. He said:“I feel like all the things are moving in the right direction. It’s hard to win a Cup race, we all know that. But next week we’ve got Road America, my best track. So, we’ll get it done.”Michael McDowell has a special connection to the road courseMichael McDowell has a special connection to road courses, especially Road America.
