AJ Allmendinger on Phoenix Raceway:
“I’m really pumped to get into this No. 16 Action Industries Camaro ZL1 at Phoenix this week. The racing has been great so far this year, and our Kaulig Racing cars have been fast. Going into it, I don’t have set expectations for myself — I just want to be able to help my team learn more and hopefully have a solid result.”

Justin Haley, No. 31 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Camaro ZL1

Justin Haley on Phoenix Raceway:
“I’m really looking forward to racing at a short track this week. We’ve shown some speed these last few weeks at Kaulig Racing, which is really encouraging. There are a few things we need to continue working on as a team, so hopefully we can minimize mistakes and keep the good finishes coming our way.”

United Rentals 200
Phoenix Raceway
NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS)
Saturday, March 12 at 4:30 p.m. ET on FS1

  • Kaulig Racing has earned 10 top-10 finishes at Phoenix
  • Kaulig Racing has an average finish of 11.0 at Phoenix in the NXS

Landon Cassill, No. 10 Voyager Chevrolet

  • Cassill has an average finish of 21.4 at Phoenix (11 starts)
  • He earned one top-10 finish in 2008 (sixth)

Landon Cassill on Phoenix Raceway:
“Kaulig Racing has put a lot of focus on our package for Phoenix, so I’m really looking forward to racing this weekend. This will be my first short track with Kaulig Racing, and Phoenix is a track where I’m very comfortable. Hopefully the speed we’ve shown the past few weeks carries over to this weekend.”

Daniel Hemric, No. 11 AG1 Chevrolet

  • Hemric’s lone NASCAR win came at Phoenix in 2021 to win the NXS championship
  • Hemric has an average finish of 11.6 at Phoenix across eight starts
  • He has led 93 laps at Phoenix, 92 of which came in 2021

Daniel Hemric on Phoenix Raceway:
“Phoenix is a special place for me, for many reasons and has been the place where some of my more dramatic career moments have occurred. Last year, I had to race my way into the Championship 4 race and was able to end the season on the highest note possible. I’ve always been comfortable there on track, so I’m looking forward to going back. Obviously, the car has to be able to maneuver and do certain things really well, but raw speed is probably the most important element there. That’s something we are working hard on at Kaulig racing to move the needle in the right direction. Hopefully we can take that into race trim and give them a fight.”

AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Action Industries Chevrolet

  • Allmendinger has an average finish of 15.0 at Phoenix across four starts
  • He has led five laps at Phoenix, all in 2008

AJ Allmendinger on Phoenix Raceway:
“Phoenix is a racetrack we know we need to make improvements on at Kaulig Racing on the Xfinity side. I’m very optimistic with the positive start we’ve had to this season and the speed of our cars. That makes me look forward to going to Phoenix and continuing to make ourselves better.”
