Gallagher Motorsports Previews The NC Education Lottery 200

“Charlotte, statistically, is not one of my best tracks for whatever reason. I’m not sure why that is. We’ve had some decent runs there before, so I guess for me it’s just focusing on not making mistakes. We’ll work with our teammates and watch what other teams are doing. Last year wasn’t too bad, and we learned a lot at the test, so I feel good about where we are at. I absolutely feel an urgency to get locked-in to run for another championship, it’d be nice to get that done this weekend.”

“I’m really happy of the run this team had last week at Kansas. We spent a lot of time prepping our 1.5-mile program and it showed. We’ll go out and try to build on what we learned last week and incorporate some of the work we did at the test. This No. 24 team has a good base to work off of so we just need to fine-tune and tweak to be able to run closer to the front and eventually capitalize on a win. I’ve still got a lot of learning to do, so the focus is on learning and then applying that knowledge to each race as we work through the season.”​

“It’s darn near impossible for a rookie to get an understanding of Charlotte since it is so temperature sensitive. Lucky for me NASCAR had the sanctioned test a couple weeks ago at Charlotte, so I actually got to feel the change from day to night. That’s super important for me because I know what I need the truck to feel like this weekend.

“I also have a little extra motivation this weekend with Outlaw Fasteners onboard. This is their introduction to NASCAR and I want to give them a good showing.”

TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
