LeMastus on Chicagoland Speedway:
“I can’t wait for Thursday to get here. After being out of the seat for a couple weeks, I’m more than ready to climb back in the Crosley Brands Toyota. This team has a lot of positive things happening right now, and we are looking forward to putting together another solid weekend in Chicago. I’ve raced here one other time, I believe it was in 2015, so I’m sure the track has widened out and aged a bit. The worn out tracks always put on a good show. I’m excited to get out there and hopefully get another top-five finish for the 54 guys this weekend.”
