- Key Takeaway: Connor Hall and the Comprehensive Logistics team pressed on and learned a lot together at Rockingham. Hall, who made his second-career NCTS start, qualified 27th for the 200-lap event. In the beginning of the race, he noted that the balance was very free, which prompted the No. 4 crew to make heavy adjustments. As the race continued, Hall began to slowly chip away at it and pick up speed. Towards the end of the event, Hall ran lap times similar to those of the leaders, despite being a couple of laps down. He brought the truck home cleanly in 20th-place.
- Connor Hall's Post-Race Thoughts:
“Obviously, that wasn’t the game plan for us to fight back from so much adversity - but we showed up with the goal of running all 200 laps and gaining experience, and for the betterment of my career at Niece Motorsports, everyone here understands that I need time to learn. I understand that I need time as well, and would say that the Connor on lap 200 compared to the Connor on lap one has a way better understanding of truck racing.
I thought there at the end, we were right behind some of the front runners and maintained our pace with them. We could make speed, but it’s just part of the learning process on finding out what the adjustments do. I thought we started off behind on our balance, and it took to the last stage to hone it in. Our goal was to run the full race and get better in every stage, learn aero, and have a building day. I wish we could have finished a little better, but I learned a lot and had a ton of fun. Huge thanks to Josh Morris, Greg Fowler, Cody Efaw, and everyone at Comprehensive Logistics, Niece Motorsports, and Team Chevy.”
