Chase Briscoe, driver of the No. 98 Nutri Chomps Ford Mustang:
“It was an up and down day starting off, but it was great to actually qualify for once. It was a struggle for the first three-quarters of the race with a really tight race car. We were going to be sitting pretty there at the end when we came out of the pits in sixth, but got caught speeding down pit road, which really hurt our chances by having to go to the back.”
