Michael Self will make his fifth run for the JD Motorsports with Gary Keller team in Saturday’s Furious 7 300 at Chicagoland Speedway.

Eleventh place may not seem like anything to brag about until you realize that everyone ahead of him has Sprint Cup backing. Surrounded by names like Roush Fenway Racing, JR Motorsports, Richard Childress Racing and Joe Gibbs Racings, Jeremy Clements Racing is David to their Goliath.

This Week's No. 28 JGL Racing Toyota at Chicagoland Speedway: J.J. Yeley will pilot Chassis No. 235 in the Furious 7 300 at Chicagoland Speedway. This will be the sixth time that Yeley has raced this chassis in the 2015 season. He last raced it a few weeks ago at Darlington Raceway where it featured the "Gray Ghost" throwback scheme on its way to a 16th-place finish.

Kyle Larson will make his 10th XFINITY Series start of 2015 at Chicagoland Speedway on Saturday. In four previous XFINITY Series starts at the 1.5-mile speedway, Larson has two top-five finishes, including a runner-up finish in the fall race in 2014. He has an average finishing position of 12.2 and has led 27 laps at Chicagoland. Larson finished third in his only Sprint Cup Series start at Chicagoland in 2014.

Ten races separate Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup No. 1 seed Jimmie Johnson from potential immortality. If Johnson wins NASCAR’s 16-driver, four-knockout round playoff, he will capture his seventh series title, tying Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt Jr. for the all-time lead.

MOST CAMRYS IN THE CHASE: Five Toyota Camry drivers are set to compete in the NASCAR Chase for the Sprint Cup Series playoff – the most championship entries for Toyota in a single season. Camry drivers Kyle Busch (seeded second to start the postseason), Matt Kenseth (third), Carl Edwards (eighth), Denny Hamlin (11th) and Clint Bowyer (16th) all qualified for the 16-driver championship field which will kick-off this weekend at Chicagoland Speedway. Both Busch and Kenseth enter the Chase tied with Jimmie Johnson for the most wins this season with four.

An ill-timed caution during green-flag pit stops robbed the No. 43 WinField team of a great finish last week in Richmond. This week, Dakoda Armstrong heads to Chicagoland Speedway. During the spring race at Chicago, the team was on pace to have one of its strongest performances of the season before heavy contact from a competitor wrecked their otherwise good day.

Roush Fenway Racing heads to the land of deep dish pizza, Al Capone’s tax evasion, every John Hughes movie and “Da Bears!” this weekend as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) returns to Chicagoland Speedway, excellent!

Saturday evening’s NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Chicagoland Speedway marks Chris Buescher’s fourth start at the 1.5-mile track.

Buescher has completed all 600 laps in his three starts and has never finished outside the top-12.
