I hope RGM figured out some things from Fontana, Kansas, Texas and Charolette. The team's runs there were not that great as their finishes were outside of the top 30. RG has done good at this track in the past, so let's see with some help from Dodge and Wimmer's testing, that the team found enough to get a finish that locks them in the top 35 for the next couple of races.

Just saw this on twitter:

Bob Pockrass:
Oil pans must be approved so that they meet size and weight requirements. No word if unapproved JGR oil pans met them.

Possibly some issues for the Gibbs teams

I don't know what the deal with WalGreens is......but that is Huge. 40 Billion dollar Market Cap company with over 7500 locations.....one way to get your product on every corner throughout the US....One thing to get cans on the shelf, another thing to get people to understand it's there.....If Speed is going in Walgreens, i would say the people at Speed are/should be celebrating a Marketing Victory.....
