Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 99 Freeway Insurance Chevrolet Camaro for Trackhouse Racing:

“Today was disappointing because I thought our Freeway Chevrolet was faster than where we finished. We had good speed, I thought. We were good on the long runs, but just struggled on the short runs today and with all the cautions at the end of the race we struggled.”
