- Key Takeaway: Conner Jones and the Comprehensive Logistics team had some close calls throughout the race in Charlotte, but never gave up and earned a top-15 result. Jones started the time-shortened event in 22nd and was moving forward when he received damage on the right front of his truck in the opening stage. Jones nearly avoided a spinning truck on the backstretch, but picked up additional damage after getting slightly clipped on the right side. The No. 42 crew repaired his truck and made adjustments to tighten the handling up for the final run to the checkers. Jones crossed the line in 14th-place - marking his best finish of the year so far.
- Conner Jones’ Post-Race Thoughts:
“I think we just fired off too free, and we were consistently too free the whole run. I felt like every time I’d get in dirty air, we could do a little something, but we would end up getting free when someone would put it on our door pretty hard. We got the damage from the stack up down into turn one. There was not really much I could do; I got ran through from the back. Overall, I feel like it was a really solid day. Best finish of the year so far. Just can’t thank all of my partners, everyone at Comprehensive Logistics, Chevrolet, Scott’s Collectibles, and my Niece Motorsports guys enough. Our truck was really, really good today.”
