  • NEW HAMPSHIRE XFINITY SERIES RECAP:Jones started the Crayon 200 in eighth place on Saturday. He battled an ill-handling racecar most of the first and second stages. Crew Chief Jeff Meendering and the No. 19 crew made adjustments on each pit stop to better the car. Jones scraped the wall on lap 124, avoiding a wreck. The day ended for the No. 19 team on lap 142 after Jones was turned trying to steer clear of a wreck in front of him and hit the inside wall giving the car too much damage to continue.  
  • ARCA MENARDS SERIES: Jones will also be competing in the ARCA Menards Series (AMS) General Tire Delivers 200 this weekend at Pocono Raceway in the No. 81 Menards/WATTS Toyota Camry. Jones has won both of his AMS starts this year with victories at Charlotte and Iowa.

From the Cockpit: 

Brandon Jones: “We are headed to the Tricky Triangle early this week for another ARCA Menards Series/NASCAR Xfinity Series double header. I hope to use ARCA as extra practice to prepare myself for Saturday’s race.  I have shown success in the past at Pocono in multiple series but have struggled to get the finish we deserve in our Menards Toyota GR Supra. I plan to turn that around this Saturday as I have worked hard towards improving my runs at Pocono leading into this weekend. We’re looking to get both the Watts Toyota Camry and the Menards/Pelonis GR Supra in victory lane for the weekend sweep.”
