Previous Race Recap… Maxwell with Travis Kvapil struggled throughout the weekend fighting a constant tight race truck. During the race a broken gear one-third of the way through ended the day for the No. 50.

Travis Kvapil on Racing at Charlotte Motor Speedway:
“It is always great to race at home. The atmosphere here is totally different then any other track that we go to on the schedule. It’s home field but it is for pretty much every other team out here. I’m hoping to make progress with this MAKE team and have a good race for Burnie Grills. We struggled at Kansas but they are making the changes necessary to move forwards with the resources that they have”
