When it comes to road courses, AJ Allmendinger better be on your list of potential winners and he proved that again on Saturday at COTA.
“All the men and women at Kaulig Racing have been working so hard. They aren’t sleeping a bit,” Allmendinger said. “I wanted to win so bad. But I knew if I just drove right, it would have speed. Best way to show how hard this team works is to go win races.
“Thanks to my wife for putting up with my whining and crying about how much I suck. Cup (practice and qualifying) wasn’t the best, but this was good, and we’ll go attack them again tomorrow.”
Ross Chastain was spun on the final restart with 5 laps to go and Allmendinger cleared for the lead and cruised to a 2+ second win over Austin Hill. Cole Custer was 3rd..
