Chastain was the truck to beat in practice, and rolled off the starting grid from fourth-place.

The team put up a great fight for the race win, but ultimately came up one spot shy of the victory.

- Quoting Currey: What are some characteristics from this track that are different from other intermediates?
“The fact that it’s a little bit smaller, got to use a little bit of brake. That’s really it. I mean it’s concrete, they have the traction resin down and we’ll have to see how that comes into play. It seems like it’s different every year even though it’s the same stuff. I know two years ago we were all the way up in the third lane, last year we were locked down on the bottom, hopefully we can see more moving around this year. We’ve had a lot of speed there in the past so hopefully we can carry that into this weekend.”
