- Recapping Charlotte: 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 checkered. Jones crossed the line in 14th-place - marking his best finish of the year so far.
- Owner Points Outlook: Jones’ 14th-place finish at Charlotte elevated the No. 42 team one position in the owner point standings - now up to 25th-place. The team is 15 points behind Niece Motorsports’ No. 44 team in 24th, and is four points ahead of Rackley W.A.R.’s No. 26 team in 26th. Entering Nashville, the team is 113 points below the Chase cutline.
- Quoting Reif: The only concrete track that you’ve ever raced on is Bristol, so what have you been focusing on in terms of preparation for your first laps at Nashville?
“I’m trying to do everything in my power to study up on Nashville with my spotter, TJ Majors. Luckily, with TJ having connections in the Cup Series world, he has access to a lot of data from those races along with past truck races. We’ve already gone over a lot of that, and I’m sure we will go over it the night before the race. That stuff isn’t as good as practicing or seeing the track in real life, but it should be beneficial for me when we unload our Comprehensive Logistics Chevy. I’m excited for Friday night.”
