Australian Marcos Ambrose is struggling as he starts his campaign in the Carquest Auto Parts 300 with his performance during practice at the Carquest Auto Parts 300in Charlotte, North Carolina. Ambrose, who currently sits 11th in the NASCAR Busch Series points standings, posted top 10 times at the venue aboard the #59 Kingsford Charcoal Ford Fusion as a part of the final NASCAR Busch Series open test of the season last week but was not able to post a speed in the top 20 during yesterday's two full-field practice sessions.
“We didn’t do a qualifying run today but rather focused towards ensuring we will have a competitive, and consistent, race set up. Overall I’m pretty happy with the day and our times,” said Ambrose.
