Ross Chastain on Racing at Pocono: “I’m excited to get to Pocono,” said Chastain. “This is such a fun and unique race track, and I enjoy the challenge that it presents. We had a solid race at Kentucky that moved us into the top-20 in points, but our sights are set on trying to win more races before the playoffs start. I can’t thank Acurlite and BAJA enough for coming on board this weekend. I’m thrilled they’ll be joining us at the track, and I’m hoping we show them a good time.”

Making the Playoffs: A fourth-place finish for the No. 45 team at Kentucky Speedway advanced Chastain into 18th-place in the driver point standings.

Chastain has two victories this season, with one counting towards playoff eligibility. Chastain must stay in the top-20 in NGOTS point standings within the next three races in order to remain eligible to compete for the championship.

Chastain at Pocono: Chastain has two NGOTS starts at Pocono Raceway, with one top-five finish and two top-10 finishes. In his most recent NGOTS start at the track in 2013, Chastain started second and finished fifth.

In addition, Chastain has four NASCAR XFINITY Series starts at the triangular track, with two top-15 finishes. His best finish of 11th came in 2018.

The Alva, Florida native also has three Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series starts to his credit at Pocono Raceway.
