NASCAR O'Reilly Series

News and notes: After surviving the twists and turns of the Charlotte Motor Speedway Roval, Boyd will head to the Monster Mile for some "unfinished business" at Dover. “It's hard to believe we're almost in that final stretch of races, already. I've learned so much this season and I'm excited to finish these last five races out strong. Dover was intimidating to me the first time I went there, but I feel like we got better as the race went on. Unfortunately we had that battery issue last time, so I would love to go there and have a solid redeeming run this time around."

Heading into the final race before the NASCAR Xfinity Series playoff field drops to eight, Elliott Sadler sits in the sixth spot — 11 markers above the cutline.

Briscoe on Dover “I’m excited to get to Dover, I’ve only been there once but I really enjoyed it a lot. I normally like high-banked places and Dover is certainly that. It’s always nice to have a little more confidence after a win and hopefully we can carry that to Dover.”

This weekend’s NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Dover International Speedway marks Ryan Reed’s 10th start at the Monster Mile. In his nine previous starts, Reed has one top-five and two top-10 finishes. His best finish of fifth came in the 2017 spring race.

CHASE BRISCOE, No. 98 Ford Performance Ford Mustang – WHAT HAS THIS YEAR BEEN LIKE? “Just going back to what you said about the past couple years it was in this very room where I first got a chance at a stock car. They had the Peak Stock Car Dream Challenge with Michael Waltrip and I remember coming down to Charlotte and had never turned a lap in a stock car, and I didn’t win the competition, but this was kind of what kick-started it.

Matt Tifft and No. 2 Nexteer Automotive Team Earn Top-10 Finish in Debut Roval Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway "That was exactly what we needed out of today with our No. 2 Nexteer Chevrolet Camaro - a quiet day. No one really knew how this race was going to go, so I'm proud to come out of there pretty much unscathed with how on edge every single lap was here. My crew chief Randall (Burnett) and the team really did a great job getting the balance of our Camaro better and better throughout the weekend."

Austin Cindric kicked off his Saturday afternoon at Charlotte Motor Speedway by winning the pole position, his third in 28 NASCAR Xfinity Series races, and was the first-ever pole winner at the ROVAL.
