“Hey guys, Elliott Sadler here. (I’m) so excited to be coming back to my hometrack at Richmond Raceway. I can’t thank Matt and everybody enough at Kaulig Racing for giving me this opportunity.

“We’re going to another short track this weekend in Richmond! We just came out of Bristol with another Top-10 finish. I’ve got Elliott Sadler as my teammate in the No. 10 for Kaulig Racing, so I'm going to use his veteran experience."
