Recap: Joey Logano started 10th and finished seventh in the Coca-Cola Firecracker 250, a race which started on Friday night and finished Saturday afternoon after multiple rain delays. At the drop of the green flag on Friday night, Logano found little success moving forward in the No. 22 Discount Tire Mustang as most of the front runners remained in pace lap formation for the opening seven laps.
JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Discount Tire Ford Mustang (Finished 7th) TALK ABOUT YOUR RUN TODAY: “Yeah, it’s crazy out there, right? Elliott (Sadler) and the 48 did a great job pushing me all day. I was able to push the 3 a lot to get us some positions. The 9 hit me in the left-rear on the back straightaway and that just sent me through the infield. We were lucky the nose stayed on it. I thought I was going for a hell of a ride. The front-tire was coming off the ground when I went through the grass. I actually just scooped it up and made a couple of nice plows through the grass.”
