Armstrong at Darlington Raceway:
Dakoda will be making his third career NASCAR XFINITY Series start at Darlington Raceway. In his two previous races at the South Carolina track he finished 18th in both.

Dakoda’s Thoughts on Darlington:
“Darlington is obviously a tough track but one that is very fun.  Making it even more fun this weekend is the “Davey Allison Tribute” scheme we are running on our No. 28 Toyota.  Davey was a great star in our sport who was taken from us way too early. We worked closely with Liz Allison on this program and it is a great pleasure to run his Rookie of the Year scheme from 1987.”

“With only three races left until The Chase, we have to focus on not make any mistakes to hurt ourselves.  But at the same time we need to be aggressive and race hard as every point is so important.”

Davey Allison Tribute Scheme:
JGL Racing is proud to display a special tribute to legendary NASCAR driver Davey Allison and his No. 28 paint scheme from his historic rookie season of 1987.  While sporting the very popular paint scheme from that rookie season, a special Davey Allison Tribute logo will adorn the hood of the No. 28 Toyota and season long sponsor Winfield will be displayed on the upper rear quarter panels for this throwback program.
