Noah Gragson Notes
Noah Gragson and the No. 4 team head to the EchoPark Speedway in Hampton, Georgia, hoping to improve from a 27th-place finish at Chicagoland Speedway last week. Gragson currently sits 30th in the NASCAR Cup Series Driver Championship points standings. In the NASCAR Cup Series’ first trip to EchoPark Speedway, in February, Gragson finished 14th. In six NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series starts, Gragson has two poles, three top-five, and five top-10 finishes.
Long John Silver’s will join the No. 4 car this weekend, partnering with Gragson for the 260-lap event. Long John Silver’s will bring its signature, fan-favorite blue and yellow “Fish Yeah” scheme to Gragson’s Ford Mustang Dark Horse.
“Chicago didn’t go how we wanted, but we’ll take what we learned and move on,” said Gragson. “We’ll regroup and be ready for Atlanta.”

Todd Gilliland Notes
Having advanced to the Round of 8 in NASCAR’s In-Season Challenge, following a 16th-place finish at the Chicagoland Speedway, Todd Gilliland and the No. 34 team will now face off against Alex Bowman and the No. 48 team this weekend at the EchoPark Speedway in Hampton, Georgia. The 1.5-mile drafting-style track is one of Gilliland’s favorite circuits, where he has earned four top-20 finishes in nine NASCAR Cup Series career starts and regularly qualifies near the front of the field.
Ruedebusch Development & Construction will join Gilliland and the No. 34 team for the company’s second primary race of the season, this time, with a revamped look to their classic blue and white scheme. Ruedebusch has knowledge and experience in all aspects of the commercial real estate field. From locating new rental space for your business, to finding the perfect piece of land for your new corporate headquarters; from the turn-key facility to the architectural and interior design that will best reflect your company’s culture, Ruedebusch is with you every step of the way.
“Atlanta has always been a favorite for me,” said Gilliland. “We always seem to qualify well and be in contention throughout the race. The smallest error at a superspeedway can ruin your day, so it’s important we minimize those mistakes to maximize our day. It’s cool that we’re still in the In-Season Challenge and competing for a million dollars. There’s a lot on the line, but I know my guys are focused on advancing as well as bringing home a good finish.”

Zane Smith Notes
Zane Smith and the No. 38 team return to a track where they’ve proven to be a factor towards the end of the race. Since rejoining Front Row Motorsports, Smith has finished no worse than 11th (2025 Spring event) at EchoPark Speedway, with his last two visits to Hampton resulting in matching seventh-place finishes, leading laps late in the race last summer. Smith also boasts two top-five finishes in four career NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series starts at EchoPark Speedway. Smith currently sits 23rd in NASCAR Cup Series points.
Aaron’s Rent to Own joins Smith and the No. 38 team for this weekend’s activities, and with a new, patriotic, Lucky Dog scheme to celebrate America’s 250th birthday. Lucky Dog carries a rich history in the Cup Series and has been piloted by multiple race winners and championship contenders, making it one of the most recognizable and celebrated paint schemes in the sport. Aaron’s 2025 season was highlighted by three top-12 finishes with Smith, including a seventh-place finish at EchoPark in June. In NASCAR’s February 2026 event in Atlanta, Smith again finished seventh at the track.
Fans can meet Zane Smith on Saturday, July 11th, at the Aaron’s Rent to Own in Griffin, Georgia, located at 1696 N Expressway, Griffin, GA. Fans can also catch Smith at the EchoPark Speedway Fan Zone on Sunday, July 12th, at the Aaron’s Comfort Zone.
“We’ve had a lot of speed at EchoPark since I’ve been back at FRM, so this is one we definitely circle on the calendar when looking at tracks we have a good shot to compete at,” said Smith. “We keep running up front, and getting close to getting the job done there, so hopefully we stay out of trouble and have a chance to get our first win together.”
