Armstrong at Chicagoland Speedway:
Dakoda will be making his sixth career NASCAR XFINITY Series start at Chicagoland Speedway to go along with three previous starts in the Camping World Truck Series and one in the ARCA Racing Series. Armstrong has a best XFINITY Series finish of 15th at the Joliet, IL track.

Dakoda’s Thoughts on Chicagoland:
“The track at Chicagoland has really worn over the years and that makes it a really fun place to race at.  It is really important to get your car to handle well over the bumps and to maintain your momentum.  I have had good speed at Chicagoland over the years and I know this JGL Racing team will bring me a fast No. 28 Toyota – so it should be fun.”

“This is our last race before the Chase and we mathematically still have a chance.  We missed a big opportunity to close the gap last week in Richmond but we will go out there this week in Chicago and give it our best shot.”

Lets Talk Food:
Dakoda will sport a special paint scheme on his No. 28 Toyota this weekend in Chicagoland.  Through a partnership with his sponsor WinField and Justin Allgaier’s sponsor Brandt – both Dakoda and Justin will sport identical LetsTalkFood.com schemes.

WinField and Brandt have teamed up to celebrate American agriculture and to start important conversations between our nation’s food producers and consumers.  Visit LetsTalkFood.com to learn more and enter a chance to win a trip to the 2017 NASCAR XFINITY Series season opener in Daytona.
