AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Hyperice Chevrolet
Start: 5th
Stage One Finish: 1st
Stage Two Finish: 6th
Finish: 3rd
“Ultimately, we had a really good finish at Kansas. We were probably a sixth-place car for a while there, but we had a solid strategy. We didn’t have a whole lot of speed, but we were able to steal the first stage win. From there, we had to claw to get everything we could. Once the No. 9 and No. 20 cars wrecked, I knew we needed to get everything we could to extend the points gap. All the men and women at Kaulig Racing fought hard to turn an average day into a good one.”

Justin Haley, No. 11 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevrolet
Start: 6th
Stage One Finish: 9th
Stage Two Finish: 10th
Finish: 4th
“We turned a bad day into a good day. We just struggled with forward drive all day, but the guys made a really good adjustment at the end. My crew chief, Alex Yontz and the LeafFilter Gutter Protection team, did a great job. We had a good pit strategy and had a fast No. 11 car that last run. We were finally close to where we needed to be. We will pick it back up at Martinsville next weekend.”

Jeb Burton, No. 10 Dyna-Gro Seed Chevrolet
Start: 11th
Stage One Finish: 24th
Stage Two Finish: 17th
Finish: 12th
“It was a tough day overall for this No. 10 team. We struggled most of the day, and I got a little bit of damage trying to avoid a wreck in front of me. We had a good strategy and were able to get back into the top 10, but I got run into at the end, which almost wrecked us. Luckily, we only lost a few spots and salvaged a 12th-place finish.”
