LONG POND, Pa. – An engine problem sent Garrett Smithley to the garage with 15 laps remaining in Saturday’s Pocono Green 250 Xfinity Series race at Pocono Raceway.
Smithley finished 35th.

“Tough luck with the engine,” Smithley said. “We were a handful of laps away from bringing it home. Just bad luck.”
