AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Andy’s Frozen Custard Chevrolet
Start: 1st
Stage 1 Finish: 3rd
Stage 2 Finish: 10th
Finish: 6th
“It was a hard-fought day for us and our No. 16 Andy’s Frozen Custard Chevrolet. We had some issues on pit road we had to overcome, and we fought back hard. We were pretty fast all day, but after the last adjustment on pit road I just got too tight again. Texas is a challenge with getting the car to turn but not being too loose or getting too tight. This has definitely not been our best track, but I think we made some improvements today. It’s a place I have to keep working on, and it frustrates me a little bit. Overall, it was still an okay day, and we ended up having a solid points day with the way our strategy worked out.”

Justin Haley, No. 11 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevrolet
Start: 4th
Stage 1 Finish: 6th
Stage 2 Finish: 5th
Finish: 7th
“We had a really fast No. 11 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevrolet – the fastest we’ve had at Texas in a long time. We made some positive gains for sure. I’m excited to get to Kansas next week. It’s a little wider, which leaves room for more passing. Hopefully we can maximize everything and move up in points a little bit.”

Jeb Burton, No. 10 Ferguson Chevrolet
Start: 13th
Stage 1 Finish: 26th
Stage 2 Finish: 4th
Finish: 11th
“It was a frustrating day for the us. We had a really fast No. 10 Ferguson Chevy. I got a little bit of damage early in the race, but everyone on pit road did a great job to get me fixed up and back up towards the front. We just fell off in the second stage and we couldn’t quite get it back to where we needed it. We will use this week to regroup for Kansas.”
