DARRELL WALLACE JR. – No. 6 EcoBoost Ford Mustang – WHAT HAPPENED AT THE START OF THE RACE, WHERE YOU HAD TO PIT BEFORE THE GREEN FLAG? “That was just unfortunate and explains how our luck is going. We rolled off for the main and it just started sputtering and the motor shut off. I switched distributors and it fired back up, so I’m like, ‘Great, we have an electrical issue.’

Jeb Burton returned to the NASCAR XFINITY Series on Saturday afternoon at the blistering hot Indianapolis (Ind.) Motor Speedway. Burton partnered with Estes Express Lines to race the No. 98 Ford owned by Biagi-DenBeste Racing - a winning team this season in the XFINITY Series.

There aren’t many tracks on the NASCAR XFINITY Series (NXS) circuit as historic as Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and driver Ray Black Jr. is honored to be making his first start at the 2.5-mile track during this Saturday’s Lilly Diabetes 250. The driver of the No. 07 ScubaLife.com Chevrolet Camaro, who is a fan of multiple types of racing, is looking forward to getting his chance to compete at a track where so many memorable moments have occurred.

Indianapolis Motor Speedway is hallowed ground, a fact that is not lost on Jeremy Clements, who returns to the Brickyard with RepairableVehicles.com and SDD, Signs & Displays Direct for the Lilly Diabetes 250.

“It’s pretty cool to get to race at Indianapolis. I’m really looking forward to seeing what we’ll have this weekend with our Ford Mustang. Hopefully come Sunday we will get to kiss some bricks and go to victory lane.”
