Pocono was definitely out of the ordinary as you all probably saw 😂 We had good speed, qualifying 11th. Started the race super loose but kept working on it, and Pat made a great call on the last pit stop — the car really came to life!

As we were driving forward, I went to avoid a wreck off Turn 1, dropped down to the apron, hit the drain/grate, and quite literally jumped the car 😂 It bent the nose and did some damage, but we hung on for a 19th-place finish.

Bummed we couldn’t drive up to where I knew we were capable of, but proud of my vkngmotorsports team for bringing fast racecars every week! We’ve got speed, a great pit crew, and I know this second half of the season is gonna be great 👊🏻

Thank you poconotourism poconotvnetwork poconoraceway and thanks to all the die hard fans up there at one of the most beautiful tracks we go to!
