START: 13th
FINISH: 32nd
POINTS: 13th
Notes & Quotes:—
- Tyler Ankrum looked to contend at World Wide Technology Raceway after being eliminated from Playoffs contention at Watkins Glen.
- Ankrum’s No. 26 LiUNA! Silverado started from the 13th position, and it hovered around the Top 10 in the running order early on. Tyler finished Stage 1 with a 12th place finish, and moved up four spots to finish 8th in Stage 2.
- As some GMS Racing teammates were fortunate to miss the big wreck on the front stretch, Ankrum’s misfortune continued as he was hooked into the inside wall on lap 112, effectively ending his race. The young Californian was credited with a disappointing 32nd place finish.
Quote: “Tough night here in St. Louis, which is a shame because I think that we had a really strong Chevy. I love racing at Gateway, it’s so much fun, and my Crew Chief Charles made some great changes to help my balance. I hate that we got collected in a wreck that put us out, but I am proud of the speed that we showed throughout the night. Onto Darlington.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
