"I had been talking with Front Row for a while about running a race with them this year, and I think Talladega was a good fit. The team has the capability to win there, so I was excited when it came together. I always enjoyed working with (crew chief) Derrick Finley. I think we work really well together. And a lot of the same team guys and shop guys are still there from when I ran in the No. 35. It was cool when I went by the shop this week; it was like returning home.

"Talladega -- even more so than Daytona -- is anybody's game. It's wider, and you can go four-wide pretty comfortably. And that allows more opportunity, where Daytona can be a little more bottle-necked. And we plan on taking full advantage of that opportunity this weekend."

JUST THE FACTS: Sunday's race will be Wise's 66th career start for Front Row Motorsports and first this season ... He has seven career starts at Talladega Superspeedway, including a Sprint Cup career-best 10th-place finish at the track in May ... Dockside Logistics returns as primary sponsor of the No. 34 Ford.
