“Thanks Marcus Lemonis and Camping World for making things happen,” said Enfinger.
“Also, thanks to Codie and all of the Rohrbaugh family for letting me hop in the truck at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Also, big thanks to ThorSport Racing and Duke and Rhonda Thorson for letting me have some fun this weekend.”
CR7 Motorsports is off to a solid 2021 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series start with finishes of eighth and 16th in the first two races at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway and the Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway Road Course respectively.

“It would be great to earn another top-10 finish on Friday night and keep the momentum on our side ahead of Atlanta in a few weeks.”
