Frankie Muniz sums up his ARCA Menards Series race at Mid-Ohio

Having appeared in his latest NASCAR ARCA Menards Series race at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Circuit, Frankie Muniz was a cheerful driver out of his car.

Managing to finish in the top-10 once again with a P6 finish during the Zinsser SmartCoat 150, he spoke about the experience in a post-race interview and said:

"It was good. I mean the racing's so much fun. Honestly like, I was shocked how many good guys there were for a road course. Usually when you look at past races, there's a few good guys and everyoe else kind of struggles but it was a lot of really good cars out there."

Further adding on his brake issues during the race, the 37-year-old added:

"We had some issues with the brakes going the whole way like, really couldn't get the car to stop but just kept going, you know. Even if I send it into a wall I gotta keep going, I gotta fight. I'm having a blast."

Due to a lack of full-time sponsorship, Muniz's future is still uncertain. However, there are rumors about a possible offer from Morris, the Illinois-based racing outfit Clubb Racing.
