NASCAR Cup PR

"It’s great to get a pole. We’re in a little bit different colors this week with Unifirst on our Camaro. So, I’m excited to grab them a pole. It’s always a good thing when you can put down a fast lap."

TALK ABOUT THE PACKAGE HERE. “It takes you back to the 2018 feel. We were really good in the race. I struggled throughout practice the first time I was here in a Cup car. We looked at the data and I wasn’t carrying enough brake."

“I don’t get caught up in what’s the right package that NASCAR should bring from track to track. I think we’re all on an equal playing ground, so it’s just in our hands to try to bring the best product individually. So, we’re all learning what’s going to work."
