Layne Riggs is back in action this Friday night, under the lights of the Indianapolis Raceway Park (IRP).
Following a 30th place finish at the Pocono (Pa.) Raceway, Riggs and the team look to bounce back at a place that has been good for the 22-year-old rookie. With only two previous starts at the 0.686-mile track, Riggs has finished in the Top-10 twice, posting a seventh-place result in 2022 and a third-place result in 2023.
Long John Silvers will join Riggs in his return at IRP, bringing the fan-favorite scheme to the No. 38 Ford F-150.
It will be a one day show for the team with practice and qualifying at 3:30 pm ET. The 200-lap event is scheduled for later that evening at 8:30 pm ET. Fans can watch the action live on FS1 or listen in from the Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM channel 90.
No. 38 Long John Silver’s Ford F-150:
DRIVER LAYNE RIGGS:
“This is a big weekend for the team and me. We have shown a lot of speed on short tracks this year, and it’s the type of racing I grew up on in my late model days, so I am confident in our performance this weekend. Like I’ve been saying all year, just need to bring a fast Long John Silver’s Ford F-150 and execute on all fronts and I think we have a shot to win.”
CREW CHIEF DYLAN CAPPELLO:
“This track has Layne’s (Riggs) name written all over it. He is a short track guy through and through. We had a good sim session and are confident that we can execute a solid race, it just comes down to qualifying up front and staying up there.”
