– The Spencer Clark Driven Foundation is a cause close to the Gallagher family.

“I’m super excited to be running a tribute scheme for the first time! It is really an honor to have Spencer Clark on the car and I hope that we can have a really solid finish just to show how strong GMS really is. I’m really confident in what GMS Racing brings to the race track and we have a lot of momentum from New Smyrna that we will carry into the Bullring!”
