Petty GMS Motorsports took some very positive steps last season as the merger between the two entities seemed to work out for the best. Jones' one win, 13 Top-10 finish effort was the best performance a Petty driver has posted in a single season since Marcos Ambrose's one win, 12 Top-10 finish campaign way back in 2011. The 26-year-old veteran now has 219 Cup Series starts to his credit, and Jones has this historic race team pointed in the right direction after a number of years of mediocrity. The good season led to a contract extension with Petty GMS and Jones will continue to work with crew chief, Dave Elenz, going forward. It will be tough to hang onto these gains in the upcoming season, but we believe Jones is up to the task. His best tracks by far last year were the road courses, superspeedways and larger ovals. The lone win came at Darlington for his third-career victory.
