No. 30 AccuDoc Solutions Chevrolet News and Notes

• Jason Leffler looks to one-up his best finish at ‘the World’s Fastest Half-Mile’… Going into this weekend’s Food City 250, Leffler is looking to better his last night-race finish at Bristol Motor Speedway (BMS), second-place in August 2010. This was the second time the veteran driver has finished in the runner-up position at BMS. He finished second in the August 2007 event after starting from the pole and leading 81 laps.
• On a roll at BMS… Leffler is holding onto an impressive run in ‘Thunder Valley,’ with just one finish outside the top-10 in his last eight starts at the half-mile track. In 16 starts, Leffler has three top-five and eighth top-10 finishes with 87 laps led. 
• Number Swap… As in 2010, Leffler will share seat time in the No. 38 Great Clips Impala with Sprint Cup Series star, Kasey Kahne. In eight events throughout 2011, Leffler and his team, including crew chief Eddie Pardue, will make the jump to the No. 30 Chevrolet. The number swap proved valuable for Leffler and his team in 2010, in eight starts behind the wheel of the No. 10 machine he scored seven top-10 and three top-five finishes! In four starts in the No. 30 Chevrolet this season Leffler has three top-10 finishes.
• Loop Data at BMS… Leffler is in the top-10 in several categories in NASCAR’s pre-race loop data statistics at BMS including: average running position (10^th), closers (8^th), fastest lap run (7^th), green flag passes (5^th), number of laps led (9^th) and laps inside the top-15 (5^th).
• This week’s Impala… The No. 30 AccuDoc Solutions will hit the track with chassis TMS-116 this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway. This is the same chassis Leffler piloted at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis and the Nationwide Series first stop at Iowa Speedway.
• Turner Motorsports: In the hunt… In 24 Nationwide Series events in 2011, Turner Motorsports-prepared entries have notched three wins, 19 top-five and 47 top-10 finishes. All three of Turner Motorsports’ championship-contending drivers are inside the top-six in the driver point standings with Reed Sorenson in second, Justin Allgaier in fourth and Leffler in sixth.

Jason Leffler on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway

“The night race at Bristol is one of my favorite races of the year. We have had some awesome runs here and I know we are going to be in contention at the end of the night on Friday. It really suits my style of racing and brings me back to the old days of racing. Qualifying is always important because it is easy to go a lap down there and staying out of trouble is key. If we qualify well and stay out of trouble, there’s no reason we won’t be there at the end and hopefully taking this AccuDoc Solutions Chevy to victory lane.”
