Round: 25 of 25 (Season Finale)
Track: Homestead-Miami Speedway
Location: Homestead, FL
Date & Time: Friday, November 6 | 7:30 PM ET
No. 4 Niece Equipment Chevrolet Silverado RST

- Key Takeaway: Connor Hall and the Niece Equipment team maintained a smooth evening at Homestead-Miami. Hall qualified the highest out of his teammates in 11th-place, displaying a solid pace. The No. 4 Chevrolet slid back to 21st in both stage one and two, but Hall kept his team in the fight as he gained valuable experience. After making adjustments ahead of the final stage, Hall developed an issue which hindered his ability to extract the full potential out of his truck. He drove smart through the end of the race and closed the season with an 18th-place result.
- Connor Hall’s Post-Race Thoughts:
“After practice last night and after qualifying earlier today, I thought we were pretty good. I felt like maybe we could be a 10th to 12th-place truck, but I don’t know. Just right from the start, it fired off a little different than I expected. As it turned out, we figured out that we had something going south in the rear end and just had to manage the expectations of what we were able to accomplish. When we found that issue, I didn’t want to try and overstep by trying too hard and put myself in a compromising situation, especially after some of the lessons I learned at Kansas. I’m very thankful that I got to run all these races this year with Niece Motorsports. Huge thanks to Al Niece and Niece Equipment, Greg Fowler and Cory Darr with J.F. Electric, Josh Morris with DQS Solutions & Staffing, Cody Efaw, Jason Wilson, Mike Shiplett, and everyone on my No. 4 team for their hard work this year.”
