Layne Riggs Heads West to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Las Vegas (Nev.) Motor Speedway Competition Notes

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (February 29, 2024) – The yellow submarine is back on track at the Las Vegas (Nev.) Motor Speedway this weekend. Layne Riggs and the No. 38 team have had a rocky start to the season after being collected in back-to-back accidents at both the Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway and the Atlanta (Ga.) Motor Speedway.

While Riggs will be making his Vegas Truck Series debut, he returns to the 1.5-mile oval after finishing 10th-place in last year’s October Xfinity Series race with Kaulig Racing.

It’s a one day show for the Love’s RV Stops team. Track activity will begin Friday, March 1st with practice and qualifying at 4:30 p.m. ET. The 200-mile event will take place Friday evening at 9:00 p.m. ET. Fans can watch the action live on FS1. Fans can also listen in from the Motor Racing Network and Sirius XM.

No. 38 Love’s RV Stops Ford F-150:

DRIVER LAYNE RIGGS:

“It’s been a tough couple of weeks, but I’m feeling pretty confident going into Vegas. This is the first true race where the outcome isn’t just a gamble like Daytona and Atlanta. You have to be more technical at the mile and a halfs. Dylan (Cappello) and the team have been hard at work all week making sure we have a fast Love’s RV Stops Ford F-150, I just have to go out there and execute.”

CREW CHIEF DYLAN CAPPELLO:

“We’re ready for Vegas. Like Layne (Riggs) said, it’s been a rocky start to the season but I’m going into Vegas like it’s the first race. While the results from Daytona and Atlanta were not what we wanted, Layne and I learned a lot about each other and how we operate. Our time is coming, we just have to execute.”
