LEGACY MOTOR CLUB Race Recap: Darlington Raceway II

Carson Hocevar, No. 42 Sunseeker Resort Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 15TH

FINISH: 17TH

OWNERS POINTS: 32ND

Carson Hocevar’s Post-Race Thoughts: “Physically, I feel really good. I wish I could have got a spot or two more. The weak part of my game, for sure, was pit road. I felt like I lost four or five spots on each cycle, just trying to maximize lights. These guys nail it every time. But I felt like I was OK on the race track. I felt pretty good and just kept working at it. I passed a few of my heroes that win races on Sunday. I wasn’t expecting that and I think I exceeded my own expectations.”

Erik Jones, No. 43 Allegiant Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 20TH

FINISH: 10TH

POINTS: 27TH

Erik Jones Post-Race Thoughts: “It was an up-and-down day, but a top-10 finish is obviously solid for us. It’s been awhile since we’ve done that. I feel like we had a better car at points there running in the top-three, top-five, and I was hoping we could hit it right on the adjustment to make it work there to challenge upfront. We just got a little off and couldn’t really get it reigned back in there for the end. Our No. 43 Allegiant Chevy was good, we just needed a little bit more.”
