Petty GMS Race Recap: Homestead-Miami Speedway

Ty Dillon, No. 42 SunseekerResorts.com Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 30th
FINISH: 26th
POINTS: 28th

Ty Dillon Post-Race Thoughts: “We didn’t really have the speed we needed all day with our Sunseeker Resorts Camaro. In the first 15 or 20 laps, we just got so far behind and wasn’t really able to recover. It was definitely a struggle all day, and we lost some positions with the spin on the last lap too. Hopefully we will get better for the last two races.”

Erik Jones, No. 43 Morgan Law Group Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 22nd
FINISH: 30th
POINTS: 18th

Erik Jones Post-Race Thoughts: “Today just wasn’t our day. I thought we found some things at the test that would help us, but we struggled all race with the handling. We’ve got some work to do for sure before we come back here next year. You’ll have weeks like this, especially as we continue to learn this car. Glad to have this one behind us and move on to next week at Martinsville with our Air Force Chevy.”
