After running the fastest lap in practice on Thursday and qualifying solidly in the eighth position on Saturday, RAB Racing was ready for the challenge of 300 miles at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Bowman battled a tight car all race long and could never regain the all important track position at the end of the race, finishing in the 20th position.
“We’ll that’s definitely not the race we wanted to have,” said Bowman. “I’m really excited to have Windows Surface Tablets come on board with us, it’s a great piece of equipment that my crew chief Chris Rice and I utilize during practice for all our setup notes, live timing and scoring, and all my feedback at certain places on the track are stored from each race we go to, I couldn’t imagine going to the track without it.”
“In the race we got really tight at be end of our tire run at the beginning and ever since that point we just weren’t able to get that track position back. I’ve got to thank my crew chief Chris Rice for chasing down the setup all day long, we got it pretty good right there at the end and he played a little bit of strategy with staying out on old tires to get track position, but we got up into the wall late in the race and had to come back into the pits and repair the damage. Although I’m excited because next week we go to one of my favorite tracks in Dover International Speedway so we will bounce back then. ”
The No. 99 of Alex Bowman occupies the 10th place in drivers points standings and Robby Benton is now in 14th place in the owners points standings. Next race is the 5hr Energy 200 at Dover International Speedway on June 1st.
