GARRETT SMITHLEY FINISHES TOP 25 AT HIS HOME TRACK

Garrett Smithley, racing at his home track of Atlanta Motor Speedway, had to overcome a few challenges to finish in the top 25 in the NASCAR Xfinity Series Rinnai 250.

Cellairis, a leading global device repair and accessory company based in Atlanta, came on board as the primary sponsor on Smithley’s No. 15 JD Motorsports with Gary Keller Chevrolet Camaro.

“It’s always fun to come back to my home track,” said Smithley. “We had some issues with the car on Friday, so we only had two runs in practice. It was really tough to start the race with limited practice, so we used the first stage and a half of the race to really get the car where we wanted it. With everything we were up against, we’re pretty happy with a top 25, and it gives us some momentum going into Vegas. I can’t say enough about my sponsors Superior Essex and Cellairis. They are such great groups of people. It means a lot to have two Atlanta-based companies on board for my home-town race, and I’m hoping we can do more together in the future.”

Next up for the NASCAR Xfinity Series is the Boyd Gaming 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on March 3rd, 2018.
