Landon Cassill scored one of his best runs of the Nationwide Series season in the April ToyotaCare 250 at Richmond International Raceway.

This week he’s back for more – and hopefully an even better result.

Cassill finished the spring race on the lead lap and recorded a 19th-place finish. It was a $20,000 payday.

“Richmond is one of the best tracks we go to,” Cassill said. “You need good speed there, but it’s also a short track so you have to handle, too. Even if you’re off a little, though, it’s wide enough that you can pick a different groove. It’s definitely a driver’s track.”

Cassill will be driving the JD Motorsports with Gary Keller No. 4 car again this week.

All RIR Nationwide activities are bundled into Friday. Practice will be from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., with qualifying at 4:05 p.m. and the race at 7:30 p.m.

The event will be the 1,000th in the history of the Nationwide Series. The opener was held in 1982 as an outgrowth of the former Late Model Sportsman Series.
