Michigan International Speedway awards the Michigan Heritage Trophy each race to the winning manufacturer.

From a tenth place starting spot in the FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway (MIS), Chase Elliott led the field for 35 of the 200-lap race and powered the No. 24 NAPA Auto Parts Chevrolet SS to a career-best second place NASCAR Sprint Cup Series career finish. It was his 11th top-10 effort in 2016 and first top-10 at MIS for the 20-year-old Rookie-of-the-Year contender.
