Team Notes
Shane van Gisbergen, No. 16 Acceptance Insurance Camaro ZL1
“I’m looking forward to racing the Cup car at Martinsville this weekend and getting a feel for how the car races on a short track. It will still be a challenge for me as I continue to learn on the ovals but excited to see how my Acceptance Insurance Chevrolet stacks up with the rest of the field. It’s going to be fun!”
– Shane van Gisbergen on Martinsville Speedway
Daniel Hemric, No. 31 High Point Body & Paint Camaro ZL1
“Few people have supported my racing career longer than Hoyt Demis and High Point Paint Services, so it’s great to see them on the car this weekend. Making it more special is that High Point and Sherwin-Williams are donating $30,000 to our Be The Change Scholarship at Rowan Cabarrus Community College, which will allow us to increase the number of scholarships we award annually. On the competition side of things, there are a lot of variables going into this weekend with the tires. We’re all looking forward to that challenge and maximizing our day at all costs.”

Josh Williams, No. 11 Alloy Employer Services Chevrolet Camaro
“Winding down the year with Martinsville, another one of my favorite race tracks. I’m a short-track guy, so I’m excited to get going there and hopefully have a good finish and maybe chase a clock.”
– Josh Williams on Martinsville Speedway
AJ Allmendinger, No. 16 Amarr Chevrolet Camaro
“Martinsville has always been one of my favorite racetracks and this is the first time we are able to go there without having to worry about points. We have the opportunity to just focus on strategy to put ourselves in the best position to win a Martinsville Grandfather Clock.”
– AJ Allmendinger on Martinsville Speedway
Shane van Gisbergen, No. 97 Wendy’s Chevrolet Camaro
“Martinsville [Speedway] is an epic place, and I really enjoyed racing there in the spring. It’s another massive challenge for me and the racing is super intense once the field takes the green flag. Excited to see how much my team can keep improving and hope for another solid result in my Wendy’s Chevrolet on Saturday.”
