Pre-race notes
The Late Model car count ebbed a bit with drivers who had problems in Sunday’s action or Tuesday’s practice. … Home-track favorite Ricky Thornton Jr. of nearby Chandler is done for the week in the Late Model division after his J.R. Haley-owned ride suffered heavy damage early in Sunday’s feature. … Jake O’Neil of Tucson, Ariz., will sit out Wednesday while awaiting parts to repair an engine hurt in Tuesday’s practice. … No new Late Model drivers are on the grounds Wednesday, but Chandler Petty of Cabot, Ark., is expected to compete for Louisiana-based Childress Racing during three weekend events. … The 40-car Late Model count is the fewest for Arizona winter action since the 2013 finale at USA Raceway in Tucson, Ariz., drew 39 cars.
