- Key Takeaway: After having two races feel like they got away, Bayley Currey and the No. 44 team were able to break through for a hard-earned top-10 finish at Texas Motor Speedway. Currey started the race mid-pack and struggled to pass other trucks in dirty air, but kept calm and stayed calculated throughout the night. With the help of some great pit stops and strong maneuvers on restarts, Currey drove to an eighth-place finish.
- Bayley Currey's Post-Race Thoughts:
“That was what we on the No. 44 team call a “blue collar night”. We struggled a little bit, man. I felt like we just couldn’t get a handle on it in dirty air, and trying to pass trucks tonight was really tough. But, we hung in there and did what we needed to do in order to try to stay out of trouble. I got in a little trouble, not too bad, just trying to stay out in the most trouble and just ended up there at the end.
I kind of knew that’s all we needed to do. I told myself in the beginning, ‘Hey, we’re not just going to drive through the field here, just got to keep the fenders on it and go from there’. We did that, and the guys worked hard and made some adjustments, and we got it better. It still was so hard to pass here. It was a very one-lane racetrack tonight.
These guys on the MG Machinery / Texas Asphalt Paving Association No. 44 did a really good job. I mean, they stayed in it all night. Pit crew stayed in it all night, gave me a good green flag stop, even on the stops when we made adjustments, they got me out pretty dang quick. I’m proud of the team, and we’ll go to Kansas.”
