This Week’s No. 28 JGL Racing Toyota at Road America:  J.J. Yeley will pilot Chassis No. 411 in the Road America 180 at Road America. This is a same chassis that J.J. Yeley piloted to a 12th-place finish at Watkins Glen International and a 16th-place finish at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course a few weeks ago.

Yeley at Road America:
J.J. will be making only his second career NASCAR XFINITY Series start at Road America.

Yeley and his JGL Racing team earned a very impressive fifth place finish in this event last year.

Horsepower Change:
For just the second week, Yeley and his JGL Racing team roll into Road America with the new addition of Joe Gibbs Racing Engines to their No. 28 Toyota.   In their continued effort to become a top team in the sport, JGL Racing will campaign the JGR horsepower for the remainder of the 2015 NASCAR XFINITY Series season.

J.J.’s Thoughts on Road America:
“There is a sense of excitement this week for myself and this JGL Racing team as we return to the site of our best finish together last year.  Like most of these road courses, Road America is a fun but challenging track.  There are some significant elevation changes that are challenging.  The key is to keep your car on course and don’t abuse your equipment early and be there for a strong run at the end of the race.”

“We are in the middle of an exciting growth time for this JGL Racing team.  We are running a new engine package and we continue to get better each week.  We have had two solid road course finishes so far and if we take care of our No. 28 Toyota all day then we should be in line to get a top-five finish like last year at Road America.”
