McDowell Heads to Best Track Looking for Playoff Spot
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (August 25, 2020) - This Saturday night, August 29th, Michael McDowell and the No. 34 Front Row Motorsports team head to the Daytona International Speedway with one goal-to win and earn a playoff spot in the final regular season race of the NASCAR Cup Series. CarParts.com and CARDONE will join McDowell and the team in what is primed to be one of the most exciting races of the season. The final race of the regular season will feature over 15 drivers racing in a must-win situation to make the NASCAR playoffs. The Daytona International Speedway is known for its exciting, wild, and unpredictable finishes. McDowell and the CarParts.com Ford Mustang team will be one of the teams needing to win to make the playoffs. CarParts.com, the tech-forward company with a fast, easy-to-use website that improves the way drivers shop for the parts they need, will be joined by CARDONE on the No. 34 Saturday night on NBC. CARDONE Industries has grown to be one of the largest automotive parts remanufacturers in the world. Renowned for their innovative reverse-engineering process, the company specializes in analyzing factory original parts and pinpointing why they failed. In many cases, CARDONE improves the original design by reinforcing key areas so the part can last longer. You can find CARDONE products-including brake calipers, remanufactured throttle bodies, and both new and remanufactured axles and steering pumps-at CarParts.com. "We want to thank CarParts.com for this special opportunity to have CARDONE join them as a part of the No. 34 team Saturday night," said Dan Autey, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, CARDONE. "As a proud CarParts.com partner, CARDONE is passionate in its mission to produce reliable, affordable and sustainable O.E. replacement parts to the automotive aftermarket. The car looks great, and we know there is a lot of excitement going into this race. We wish Michael and the team luck and look forward to watching them compete for the win." "Michael and the Front Row Motorsports team have been great partners this season," added Lev Peker, CEO of CarParts.com. "We now want to thank CARDONE for joining us in what is expected to be a great race on NBC this Saturday night in Daytona Beach. CARDONE is a great partner to us and we hope they enjoy this partnership as much as we have. We wish Michael and the team the best in the race." For McDowell, there is no better track to compete for the win than Daytona. The veteran driver is at his best at the superspeedway. He has earned six top-10 and two top-five finishes in his Cup career at the track. McDowell has also led 21 laps at Daytona. McDowell is also in the middle of his best NASCAR Cup Series season with seven Top-15 and three Top-10 finishes. "We have been strong at most of our races this season," said McDowell. "But Daytona is a special track for me. I've had my best finishes there, have led laps there, and I feel it's our best chance to get into the playoffs. I'd love to do that with CarParts.com and CARDONE on our car. I want to thank them for joining us and giving us a chance to compete for this playoff spot." Saturday's race will be televised live on NBC and will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET. For more information about CarParts.com, visit CarParts.com. For more information about CARDONE, visit www.cardone.com.

McDowell on Dover Doubleheader:
"I'm really looking forward to this weekend's doubleheader at Dover International Speedway. Dover is a tough race track, we have a brand new aero package with low downforce and high horsepower, so it's going to be tricky for teams with no practice, but it's been another solid month for our No. 34 program, so hopefully we can unload pretty good off of the hauler and keep the momentum rolling. "We have Shield Cleansers on board for both races, which is a new partner to the No. 34 program. They're a division of Digital Ally, who you've probably seen on my teammate John Hunter Nemechek's race car in the past. It's really cool to see a newer partner get involved with our team and support both of our Cup Series programs. "Shield Cleansers have a wide variety of safe, non-toxic products that range from household cleaning or disinfecting to vet care and first aid; all things that are important to my wife and I as we have 4 young kids at home. Making sure that surfaces stay clean and hands stay sanitized has been something we've taken very seriously during the COVID-19 Pandemic and I encourage others to do the same." -30- Michael McDowell

-30- McDowell on the Daytona Road Course:
"It's a big weekend for us at the Daytona Road Course. We have Chicago Pneumatic Compressors back on board for their second race of the season, and I can't wait. Like I said, it's a big weekend because only a handful of NASCAR Cup Series drivers have experience on this course and I'm one of them. I've been fortunate enough to compete in seven 24 Hours of Daytona races over the years, so it's going to be a lot of fun to unload and see what we have. "There's no practice or qualifying, but everyone at Front Row Motorsports has put a lot of work into this weekend and we know that it's a good chance for us to potentially steal a win and lock ourselves into the playoffs." About Chicago Pneumatic Compressors Chicago Pneumatic Compressors is a market leading manufacturer and distributor of industrial compressed air products such as screw compressors, piston compressors and air treatment. When you are in need of a professional air compressor, CP Compressors is sure to have the right solution.
