Can you talk about the comeback today?

“Yeah, it was a good day overall. We had a really fast TMC Supra in stage one and stage two, and then in the start of stage three the checked up hard and I tried to check up and kind of ruined out day there but came back strong. Jeff (Meendering, crew chief) made a great call to short pit and get some track position and luckily that caution came out and helped us out.”
