“I’m really looking forward to racing the Cup car at Darlington. It’s another oval that is a massive challenge for me, but I had a lot of fun racing the Xfinity car there in the spring. Darlington has quickly become one of my favorite tracks to race. Excited to have Acceptance Insurance on board my 16 Kaulig Racing Chevy this weekend, it’s going to be fun!”

“The Southern 500 is one of those crown-jewel events that’s always a privilege to be a part of. I’m excited to be able to spend some time with my family and see a lot of great fans fill that racetrack for one of the biggest races of the year. I think we have a good opportunity to build off what we had in the spring, so hopefully we have the opportunity to showcase that.”

“I always love heading to Darlington. It’s a great track and really challenges us as drivers. We didn’t have the best run earlier this season there, but we’ve made some good progress lately, and I hope the momentum has shifted for good.”

“I feel like every time we go to Darlington, I get a little bit better with our Xfinity cars. We had a really strong race car in the spring, we had some bad luck, but we had a really competitive top five car. We’ve made our cars better since then. It’s a tough racetrack; I’m still learning the key essentials of the racetrack to be faster, but it’s definitely a racetrack I have gained confidence at. Where are cars are at, I think we can go out there, run inside the top five again and maybe give ourselves an opportunity to win the race.”

“Darlington is one of my favorite tracks I’ve raced so far in my NASCAR career. It’s a challenging track, but one I’m hoping to someday accomplish. Excited to have WeatherTech back on board this weekend. Hoping for another fun Saturday with my 97 Kaulig Racing team!”
