McClure Cleared to Race Chicagoland Speedway: After a four week hiatus, Eric McClure will return to the seat of his No 14 Camry for Saturday’s running of the Dollar General 300 at Chicagoland Speedway. He was sidelined with acute renal failure after the Watkins Glen race weekend in early August.
McClure’s Chicagoland Stats… This weekend’s event will mark McClure’s 221st Nationwide Series start and his 10th at the 1.5-mile track. In nine starts, the Chilhowie, Virginia native has one top-20 finish and has completed 90.7% of the total laps attempted (1804). His best finish of 18th came during his first season with TriStar Motorsports in 2011.
Chassis No. 12 … Crew Chief Todd Myers has selected chassis No. 12 for this weekend’s event. This chassis was last run by McClure at Chicagoland Speedway in July where a flat left-rear tire ultimately relegated the team to a 28th-place finish.
Tune-In: Saturday’s race will be televised live on ESPN 2 beginning at 3:00 p.m. (ET). MRN (Motor Racing Network) and Sirius Channel 90 will also broadcast the event live on Saturday, September 14.

About Reynolds Consumer Products
Two of the most trusted household brands, Reynolds® and Hefty®, joined together as Reynolds Consumer Products in 2010. While the establishment of this new company made it official, the truth is that Reynolds® and Hefty® products have been found side-by-side in the kitchens of American families for more than three generations.
The creation of both the Reynolds® and Hefty® brands is the direct result of American ingenuity mixed with a bit of elbow grease. Reynolds Wrap® Foil was invented after the use of aluminum for military purposes diminished after World War II and became a new staple for American kitchens. Hefty® Waste Bags were first developed with excess material from an early plastics innovator, creating another household essential.
Today, Reynolds Consumer Products, headquartered in Lake Forest, Illinois offers a diverse product portfolio of essentials for every home. From prepping, cooking and serving, to storage and disposal, Reynolds Consumer Products provides solutions for controlling the chaos of busy households everywhere.
