Post-Race: Echo Park
Round 9 · EchoPark Speedway (Atlanta)
A solid week for Team ACR — three of the four drivers scored a top-15, headlined by a 5th-place run. It was a wild day at Echo Park: all four cars got swept up in crashes, but three of them dug in and rallied back.
The #20 ran strong for most of the day, but a crash cut the run short and Presley ultimately came home 28th.
The #54 had a clean, steady night — running inside the top 10 for much of the afternoon — and Davis brought it home 14th.
The #27 got collected in a late crash but Flores battled all the way back to finish 13th.
The #11 ran the rear of the field through the opening stage and was then caught up in an 8-car crash. The team fixed the car, gained track position on a flipped pit stop, and Akridge charged all the way back to 5th.
All told, a great race day for ACR, and the team is hoping it carries momentum into the next few weeks. Up next: Texas Motor Speedway this Tuesday night, followed by a trip north to Watkins Glen.

Post-Race: Kansas
Round 8 · Kansas Speedway · 160 laps · 14 cautions for 42 laps · 1:52 race time
Some ups and downs this week for Team ACR. M. Davis did not make a start, so the team ran three cars on track.
The #27 ran into early trouble, and the rest of the night was an uphill battle for Flores and the team — after a long race he finished 25th, eight laps down.
The #20 placed well and had a solid night, finishing 14th on the lead lap.
The #11 had the best night they've had this season. Akridge placed his car 2nd, just .332 seconds from a win. Through three overtime restarts he battled West and Dyer, but Dyer ultimately brought home the win.
Akridge moved up two spots to 4th in the standings. ACR travels to the Southeast this Tuesday to take on EchoPark — see y'all in Atlanta.

Post-Race: Phoenix
Round 3 · Phoenix Raceway
ACR struggled late at Phoenix but recovered to bring home three top-20 finishes.
Davis finished strong after a late-race caution, crossing the line 16th. Flores and Presley both had trouble early but battled back for 17th and 18th.
Akridge was racy all day — including a 3rd-place run in Stage 2 — but with 50 laps to go he lost the rear off Turn 2, triggering a late caution. He'd been running 2nd at the time and ultimately finished 29th.
