This Week's GMS Racings Chevrolet Silverado at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park ... Joey Coulter will pilot Chassis No. 003 from the GMS Racing NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable in Sunday's Chevrolet Silverado 250. This Jeff Stankiewicz-prepared Chevrolet will make its first paces of the season at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park on Saturday. Prior to being in the GMS Racing fleet, Chassis No. 003 spent time at Richard Childress Racing (RCR) with Ty Dillon. Last year, Dillon qualified sixth and finished 17th in the event.

 

 

 

Left and Right Turns ... Although this weekend marks Coulter's first Canadian Tire Motorsport Park appearance with GMS Racing, the Miami Springs, Fla., driver has made one other NASCAR Camping World Truck Series start at the 2.459-mile track. This weekend's 64-lap race marks the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series second appearance at the road course venue. Last season, Coulter competed with Kyle Busch Motorsports (KBM) at the 10-turn course, where he started 19th and finished 26th. Coulter also competed in a road course race at New Jersey Motorsports Park with the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards earlier this season for teammate Spencer Gallagher.

 

 

 

Come Fly with Me ... The No. 21 Chevrolet Silverado team will sport the white, blue and orange colors this weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, with Allegiant Travel adorning the hood and quarter panels. The paint scheme was inspired by the Allegiant airline fleets scheme. With low-low fares, nonstop flights, all-jet service and premier travel partners, Allegiant provides a complete travel experience with great value without all the hassle.

 

 

 

Travel is Our Deal Where does Allegiant fly? Local Allegiant destinations from Canadian Tire Motorsport Park: Flying from Niagara Falls/ Buffalo, N.Y. (IAG) (144 miles) to Orlando / Sanford, Fla. (SFB), Tampa Bay Area, Fla. (PIE) and Punta Gorda, Fla. (PGD).

 

 

 

In the Rearview Mirror: Bristol Motor Speedway ... Joey Coulter drove GMS Racing's No. 21 Allegiant Travel Chevrolet Silverado to a seventh-place finish in the 200-lap event on August 19 at Bristol Motor Speedway. Coulter extended his top-10 streak in NASCAR Camping World Truck Series competition to three consecutive races with the strong result from the UNOH 200 presented by ZLOOP.

 

 

 

Joey Coulter Quote:

 

Getting to race in Canada is a huge opportunity for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. The fans at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park are super enthusiastic and they are sure to have a great time. The track is great for racing that puts on a great show for the fans to enjoy. This weekend is a great opportunity for our No. 21 Allegiant Travel Chevrolet Silverado to gain some more points; this race is a wildcard that has the potential to shake things up. We are aiming to be on the right end of the shaker and will keep the momentum going another week.

No. 90 Motor Honey/Casite, Allegiant Travel Chevrolet

 

 

 

This Week's GMS Racings Chevrolet at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds ... Grant Enfinger will pilot Chassis No. 399 in the Southern Illinois 100 presented by Federated Car Care at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds. This GMS Racing chassis has previously unloaded once this season at the Illinois State Fairgrounds when Enfinger started this Ryan Pickle London-prepared Chevrolet on August 17. He started second and finished third, and also lead the most laps on the one-mile clay oval.

 

 

 

Enfinger Looking for a Blue Ribbon at the DuQuoin State Fair ... This weekend marks Enfinger's second appearance at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds. In 2011, then racing with team owner Mike Allgaier, the Fairhope, Al. driver finished tenth after a qualifying effort of 14th.

 

 

 

Dirty Stats Grant Enfinger has only three starts on dirt in the ARCA Racing Series. He has an average starting position of 6.7 as well as an average finishing position of 8.3.

 

 

 

Where He Stands Grant Enfinger is in second place in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards driver point standings, only 25 points behind the leader.

 

 

 

Sweet as Honey Sponsorship ... The No. 90 Chevrolet team will sport the blue and orange colors this weekend at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds, with Motor Honey/Casite adorning the hood and Allegiant Travel on the quarter panels.

 

Meet Enfinger Grant Enfinger is scheduled to participate in an autograph session with the ARCA Racing Series on the track at 12:30 p.m. on Monday, September 1.

 

 

 

In the Rearview Mirror: Madison International Speedway ... A promising run in the Herr's Live Life with Flavor 200 on August 23 didn't produce the result Grant Enfinger was hoping for at Madison International Speedway. Enfinger, who spent 120 laps leading the 28-car field, had his powerful rally fall short when a rear-end gear broke, resulting in a 15th-place finish.

 

 

 

Grant Enfinger Quote:

 

Im looking forward to racing on dirt again with our No. 90 Motor Honey/Casite, Allegiant Travel Chevrolet, but Im not a dirt track guy. I may not have a dirt track background, but Im happy with everything I learned at Springfield (Illinois State Fairgrounds). Pickle (crew chief Ryan London) and I compared notes coming out of Springfield and were ready for a better weekend at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds. Im sure to a real dirt track guy, there is a lot of difference between Springfield and DuQuoin, but I dont come from the dirt.
