QUOTES
JADE BUFORD, DRIVER OF THE NO. 48 BIG MACHINE VODKA SPIKED COOLERS CAMARO
“I’m really looking forward to NASCAR’s return to Nashville this weekend and getting the opportunity to race at my home track. It’ll be great to have some of the hometown crowd and everybody from Big Machine there cheering us on. Having that support will hopefully help us keep our positive momentum going. We’ve had some really strong finishes the last few weeks and we want to continue to build on that.”

SCOTT BORCHETTA, TEAM OWNER
“Racing on your home turf is ALWAYS a big deal! We all have put a lot of pressure on ourselves to have a great showing this week, but now it’s time to race. The Big Machine Vodka Spiked Cooler Camaro is getting faster every week and Jade’s confidence is getting stronger every week. We’re here to race and race hard.”


NOTES
HOMETOWN RACE: This weekend the NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Nashville, Tenn., the home of both driver Jade Buford and sponsor Big Machine Vodka Spiked Coolers. Big Machine Distillery, owned by Scott Borchetta, has two tasting rooms located in Nashville: Big Machine Brewery & Distillery located on 3rd Ave. S and Big Machine Distillery & Tavern located on Bransford Ave. Nashville is also the home of Big Machine Label Group.

THE HOT STREAK CONTINUES: Last weekend Buford scored his best NXS finish on an oval, placing 16th at Texas Motor Speedway. The strong effort was the latest in a string of four consecutive top-20 finishes, including a 13th-place result at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

AUTOGRAPH SESSION: Race fans will have a chance to meet driver Jade Buford this Friday at Big Machine Brewery & Distillery located on 3rd Ave. S in Nashville. Buford will participate in an autograph session from 6:30-7:30 p.m. CT. There will also be live music and show cars on-site throughout the evening.

SPIKED COOLERS: Big Machine Vodka Spiked Coolers have become the go-to cocktail for the summer. The refreshing ready-to-drink vodka juice pouches are made with real fruit juice and are available in three flavors – Tropical, Lemonade and Cranberry. The eco-friendly pouches come eight to a box and can be served chilled or frozen, making them perfect for the pool, the lake, or the racetrack!
