Petty GMS Race Recap: Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Ty Dillon, No. 42 Lucky29 Liquors Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 33rd
FINISH: 33rd
POINTS: 28th

Ty Dillon Post-Race Thoughts: “We had a good day in Las Vegas and were on our way to a strong run, but made contact with the wall late in the race and broke something in the suspension that ended our day early. Thanks to Lucky29 Liquors for coming on board this weekend, wish we could have gotten them a better finish, but appreciate their support and look forward to the next one!”

Erik Jones, No. 43 FOCUSfactor Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

START: 22nd
FINISH: 8th
POINTS: 18th

Erik Jones Post-Race Thoughts: “We had a good, uneventful day in Las Vegas with another solid top-10 finish. We had speed all weekend, didn’t qualify where we wanted, but were able to adjust on our FOCUSfactor Chevy all race to improve throughout the day. We were there at the end, just needed a little more to get up front and be in the mix for the win. We’ll head to Homestead next weekend where I feel like we made gains at the test a few weeks ago and see what we can do.”
