PIT ROAD INCIDENT HAMPERS CASSILL
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – A pit-entrance crash early in the race cost Landon Cassill a solid run in Saturday night’s Subway Firecracker 250 Xfinity Series race at Daytona International Speedway.
Despite damage to his car, Cassill completed the race, finishing 31st.
Cassill and Jeremy Clements made contact as several cars dropped off the track to enter the pits early in the race. Both cars spun and were damaged.
“It was a tough night,” Cassill said. “We never really got to show what we had. Just one of those things you can’t predict about Daytona.”
Cassill drove the Flex Seal Chevrolet for JD Motorsports, which clearly had excellent cars for the race. Cassill’s teammates finished ninth (Harrison Rhodes) and 10th (Ross Chastain).
Cassill is 17th in Xfinity driver points.
Austin Dillon won Saturday’s race, and Chris Buescher finished 12th to keep the point lead.
The series races next at Kentucky Speedway July 10.
