Todd Gilliland and the No. 38 gener8tor Ford Mustang Dark Horse

Chicago Street Race Competition Notes

 MOORESVILLE, N.C. (July 2, 2024) – The NASCAR Cup Series returns to the streets of Chicago for the Grant Park 165. gener8tor will return with Todd Gilliland for the 75-lap event, showcasing the same fan-favorite scheme from last week’s race at the Nashville (Tenn.) Superspeedway.

This will be the Cup Series third road-course race of the season, most recently competing at the Sonoma (Calif.) Raceway, where Gilliland scored a 10th place finish.

The weekend will begin with practice and qualifying on Saturday, July 6th at 12:30 p.m. ET. Sunday’s race will be at 4:30 p.m. ET on NBC. Fans can also listen in on the action live from Sirius XM and the Motor Racing Network.

No. 38 gener8tor Ford Mustang Dark Horse:

DRIVER TODD GILLILAND:

“Chicago is a big race for us, it’s one I have had circled on my calendar. We left Sonoma with a Top-10, which is a huge confidence booster. We showed a lot of speed in practice last year, we just have to translate that into qualifying and get a good starting spot. I think it will be a good weekend for us.”

CREW CHIEF RYAN BERGENTY:

“I think we have a really solid chance of bringing home a win and punching our ticket to the playoffs this weekend. We have been working nonstop to get this car ready, double checking everything. We have a lot of positive momentum heading into Chicago from how we performed at Sonoma, we just have to bring another fast gener8tor Ford Mustang Dark Horse and execute.”
