Charlotte

A two day delay didn’t get any better for Parker Kligerman and the Spiked Coolers No. 48 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

The race was supposed to run Saturday and was moved to Monday morning. After the green flag flew at 11:10 am, it was paused due to more rain and the Coca-Cola 600, until it restarted at 9:45 pm.

The team qualified P20 and was moving up, when fuel pressure issues sent Parker to the garage on lap 97. The crew scrambled and got back in the race with 40 laps to go.

Justin Allgaier picked up his first NASCAR Xfinity Series win of the year, ahead of John Hunter Nemecheck.

The team heads across the country to Portland, Oregon this week for the Pacific Office Automation 147 on Saturday. Green flag drops at 1:30 pm pacific, 4:30 pm eastern on FS1, radio broadcast on SiriusXM and MRN.

Points update: 275, 14th place.

Notes of Interest:

“I’m really looking forward to Charlotte,” says Parker Kligerman. “First because it’s always an honor to get to race on the greatest weekend in motorsports and for all that Memorial Day weekend represents.

Also, we had a test there earlier this year and it’s sort of the first place we are going back to as a team. We have made lots of gains in terms of our speed and as a unit working together, which I think we will see this weekend.

This also kicks off a month of huge opportunity for us with a set of great tracks ahead for us. I can’t wait to get going at Charlotte and having a great month!”
