ADVANCE NOTES

Wallace at Talladega
Wallace will make his third career NASCAR XFINITY Series start at Talladega Superspeedway on Saturday afternoon.

In six career starts on restrictor-plate tracks in the NASCAR XFINITY Series, Wallace has recorded two top-10 finishes with a best finish of sixth in the 2016 season opening event at Daytona International Speedway.

In two starts in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Talladega, Wallace earned a best finish of ninth in Oct. 2014.

Recapping Richmond
Wallace finished in the 16th position on Saturday at Richmond International Raceway after finishing sixth in his heat race and fighting a tight-handling condition throughout the main event.

Seth Barbour at Talladega
Barbour will call his third NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Talladega this weekend.

In seven starts on restrictor-plate tracks in the NASCAR XFINITY Series, Barbour has earned one victory with Roush Fenway Racing teammate Ryan Reed in the 2015 season opening event at Daytona.

QUOTE WORTHY

Wallace on racing at Talladega:
“Talladega will be intense. Restrictor-plate racing in general is crazy. We finished sixth at Daytona at the beginning of the season and I think we can improve upon that this weekend. Hopefully we can keep our car clean and survive to be there for a chance to win on Saturday.”
