Austin Dillon Earns Top-10 Finish at ISM Raceway in American Ethanol Chevrolet Camaro

Finish: 8th
Start: 15th
Points: 13th

“I’m really proud of this No. 3 team. This was one of the best Chevrolet Camaros we have brought to the racetrack all season long. We had solid practices, a strong qualifying effort and a good start to the race. We were able to earn points in both stages, but we made one adjustment that hurt the handling of the car and then we’re caught on pit road right as a caution came out. These guys never gave up, though. We got the wave around and were able to make another adjustment that really helped this American Ethanol Chevrolet over the final run. We also had a little luck on our side as we were able to avoid that big wreck late in the race. We’ll take this eighth-place finish and try to end the season on a high note at Homestead-Miami Speedway.”

Shootout to the Finish Results in 11th-Place Finish for Ryan Newman and Cat Global Mining Team at ISM Raceway

Finish: 11th
Start 22nd
Points: 17th

“We battled pretty much the same issues all weekend. Our Cat Global Mining Camaro ZL1 was tight in Turns 1 and 2 and then loose in Turn 3. Obviously we weren’t happy with our qualifying effort but our car typically likes the long green-flag runs that are common at ISM Raceway so we made up the ground when the race started. Turns 1 and 2 was our biggest challenge but we were able to manage it and race the majority of the event in the top 10. We even drove up to fifth by lap 230. We ended up having a 12-lap shootout to the finish where we lined up ninth. I thought we had a top-10 finish in the cards but it just wasn’t meant to be. Shoutout to the Cat crew for a great job in the pits and thanks to all the Cat Global Mining customers for cheering us on today.”
