Under lights at Texas Motor Speedway, Brennan Newberry and the No. 24 Qore-24 Chevrolet Silverado team rolled off 18th for the WinStar World Casino 350K for the 20th race of the 2013 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) season.

 

Moving up to 17th in the opening laps of the 147-lap race, Newberry reported to the team his Silverado was too tight. When the caution waved on lap 23 for a spin, Newberry and the No. 24 team devised a plan and with pit road open, Newberry pitted for four tires, fuel and a round of adjustments. The race restarted with the No. 24 Qore-24 team in the 17th position.

 

Slipping to 21st following the restart, Newberry spent the next green-flag run working his way back up to 17th before the second caution of the race waved on lap 59 for another spin. Newberry made his second scheduled stop of the race for four tires and fuel. Following the pit stop, Newberry restarted the race from the 16th position.

 

Looking for different lines on the race track to find more speed, Newberry continued to run solid laps and maintained his position in 17th.  

 

Still needing help with his No. 24 Silverado, Newberry took full advantage of the last caution on lap 99 to pit for four tires, fuel and adjustments. Newberry restarted the race from the 15th position after the pit stop.

 

Fighting for position and with a fast Silverado,  Newberry was able to gain two positions in the closing laps to finish the WinStar World Casino 350K in 13th place.

 

Brennan Newberry Post Race Thoughts:

“It was very good for my NTS Motorsports team and I to get a good finish this past weekend. Eddie (Pardue) and the NTS Motorsport team were able to get the Qore-24 truck handling well for the race. We knew we could capitalize on moving up through the field with our strategy. I raced smart and kept the truck clean and out of trouble. I am looking forward to Phoenix because it is a track that I have always loved to race on and I know we are bringing one of my favorite trucks to that race.”
