Ty Majeski Quote:
“It’s all about being with the right people. Being with Chad Bryant and Paul Andrews has been incredible. They have put together a great team and the guys all work hard to make days like today happen.
“Coming to pit road I thought I could have gotten a little more, but I maximized my speed. “I came into the box hot and got out pretty good. I knew it was going to be tough for the 18 to match that. I saw him leaving his pit and knew he would have to use the apron in turn one and I had a good head of steam going and from there everything went our way.
“I can’t thank Crestliner for their continued support and my CBR guys for their hard work. I’m having a blast. Looking forward to having an opportunity to make it three-for-three next weekend at Michigan International Speedway.”
Next Up: VizCom 200 at Michigan International Speedway on Fri., June 7, 2019..
