Start: 7^th

Stage 1 Finish: 1^st

Stage 2 Finish: 8^th

Finish: 2^nd

“It’s always fun to race Kyle Busch for the win. They definitely had us in speed. We did everything we could, and got a lot of points. We finished second, which was as good as we were going to do. I can’t thank pit boss enough for being on our car, as well as sponsoring the race – I wanted to be in victory lane with all of them! I’m thankful for everyone at Kaulig racing and all of our partners for allowing me to do this. We are getting there.”

Start: 6^th

Stage 1 Finish: 32^nd

Stage 2 Finish: 1^st

Finish: 9^th

“It was a good points day, which we needed after last week. We were able to win a stage, so that will help us out later in the year. We had top-three speed for most of the day, but there was just too much traffic. Fortunately, we were still able to come home with a top 10.”

Jeb Burton, No. 10 Nutrien Ag Solutions Chevrolet

Start: 11^th

Stage 1 Finish: 14^th

Stage 2 Finish: 12^th

Finish: 10^th

“I felt like we had a top-six car and had a pretty good day. I just didn’t do a great job with tire management, so I lost a lot of rear grip and lost a lot of spots at the end. Overall, it was a good day. We ran in the top five most of the day and ended up with a top 10. I’m proud of this race team, and I think we will be really good at Charlotte next week.”

AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Hyperice Camaro ZL1 1LE

Start: 7^th

Stage 1 Finish: 19^th

Stage 2 Finish: 8^th

Finish: 5^th

“COTA was very slick in the rain! It was a challenging race track, but I felt like once we got up front and figured out which corners I could push, we were able to stay in a good spot. We had a lot of speed. I’m proud of everyone at Kaulig Racing and the program they have put together. To race against full-time cup teams and some of the best drivers in the world, is awesome. It was fun to go out there and run up front.”
