Todd Gilliland Notes

Todd Gilliland is back in “Sweet Home Alabama” this weekend for the NASCAR Cup Series’ second visit to the Talladega Superspeedway this season. The 2.66-mile Talladega, Alabama track is one of Gilliland’s favorites on the Cup Series circuit, having earned three top-10 finishes in seven Cup Series starts. In this year’s Spring race, Gilliland started 15th and finished 16th. He has one win at the track, capturing the checkered flag in 2019 in an ARCA Series event.

Love’s Travel Stops joins Gilliland and the No. 34 team this weekend. Fans are encouraged to download the Love’s Connect App to unlock exclusive benefits and savings. Users can save 10¢ per gallon on gas and up to 25¢ per gallon on auto diesel, along with access to great mobile-only deals. Fans can download the app from Google Play and the Apple App Store.

Gilliland and the No. 34 team will also have PEAK Performance on their Ford Mustang Dark Horse to promote PEAK’s exclusive line of PEAK products available at over 600 Love’s Travel Stops across the country. PEAK is a leader in automotive and heavy-duty products ranging from PEAK Global Antifreeze, Final Charge, PEAK Windshield Wash, and BlueDEF Diesel Exhaust Fluid. All products can be found at Love’s Travel Stops.

“I have always enjoyed Talladega, but it provides its own set of challenges,” said Gilliland. “Even the smallest error can cause race ending mistakes, so you have to execute perfectly to bring home a good finish. Front Row’s qualifying record is strong there and I have good drafting partners with Noah (Gragson) and Zane (Smith), so I expect us to have a solid weekend.”
