After a great season of racing in Europe this past year, I’m excited to be back home and moving up to the NASCAR Xfinity Series.

“I’m also happy TaxSlayer has returned for another year to support my racing career,” continued Snider. “I’m honored to be a part of bringing them back to the Xfinity Series. TaxSlayer has been a loyal partner of mine, and I can’t wait to see what we can build together moving forward. I know the season just ended, but 2020 is shaping up to be an excellent year. I’m just ready for Daytona to get here as soon as possible!”

Those values fit perfectly with ours, and I think will help guide all of us to on and off-track success next season.”
