• Justin Allgaier heads into the final race in the Round of 8 as
the third seed, eight points above the cut line to advance
to the Championship 4 in the NXS Playoffs.
• Allgaier has four Cup Series starts at Martinsville with a
best finish of 13th coming in the fall of 2015.
• Allgaier has a strong history on tracks measuring 1 mile or
less in length, with eight victories at those facilities in the
NXS. Three of those wins came this season after he
captured the victory at Dover in August and swept both
races at Richmond in September.
• The Illinois native has led a career-high 932 laps this
season.
“I think the race at Martinsville is going to be challenging.
You’re going into a race track that a lot of us have been to,
but not in an Xfinity Series car. There’s a lot on the line this
weekend. I think you’re going to have to be careful and not
do anything crazy and just get the stage points you can get
and hope that it all goes well. We had a great car at
Richmond, the last short track we went to, and I’m excited
about getting to Martinsville, that’s for sure. I’m also really
proud to have Unilever’s United for America initiative on the
car this weekend and to be able to give thanks to all the
essential workers out there. They don’t get the credit they
deserve.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
