From the Cockpit:
Ryan Truex: “I’m excited about getting back into the No.18 Toyota GR Supra this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. I have enjoyed my three races so far with Joe Gibbs Racing and am very appreciative of all the work they have done to bring us a fast Toyota GR Supra each weekend. We had a solid top-10 run going at Darlington a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, we just had a little bit of bad luck there on the last lap and didn’t get the finish we deserved. Texas is a tricky track now, and it looks like it will be hot all weekend, so it should be really slick which should make it a fun race for the fans. I know Jason and the guys will bring us a fast Supra once again, so hopefully we can go out and secure another solid run for Toyota and everyone associated with this No. 18 team.”
