NASCAR driver, Matt Tifft, who was recently sidelined due to back issues, now has another medical issue keeping him away from the track. Joe Gibbs Racing issued a medical update on their driver, indicating Tifft will undergo surgery for removal of a low-grade glioma in the brain.

Tifft will undergo surgery and rehabilitation soon and once cleared by physicians, he will return to racing. The Joe Gibbs Racing rookie is anxious to return to the race track as soon as possible.

Taking Tifft’s place in the No. 18 for the XFINITY Series race this weekend at Daytona International Speedway is David Ragan,
