“It was really tough out there today in our Bennett Transportation & Logistics Chevrolet at Nashville Superspeedway. Obviously, starting the race like we did and getting the damage on the left rear was tough. It got us off off on the tire strategy, and then during Stage 2 we decided just to stay on the older tires with the goal of staying on the lead lap. The cautions fell and helped us. After Stage 2, we were able to come in and pit to get on the same tire strategy. From that point on, I was able to drive back up through the field. Our Bennett Transportation & Logistics Chevrolet was really good all day. We fired off a little free to start the race, and then towards the end of Stage 3 I was super tight. It was really hard to make anything happen. With being as tight as I was, I just had to park it in the middle of the corner. If not, I would slide off the bottom. Everybody at Richard Childress Racing and ECR Engines fought really hard all day. We kept our head down and got a solid top five finish out of it. We’ll go on to the next one. I think we had a halfway decent points day, so we’ll take it.”
