Focused Health 302 Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Justin Allgaier, driver of the No. 7 BRANDT Professional Agriculture Chevrolet, battled hard during the opening stage of Saturday evening's NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, running inside the top 10 throughout the 45-Lap stint and earning an extremely valuable stage point when the green-and-white checkered flag was displayed. However, while fighting to crack the top five on the start of Stage Two, Allgaier was collected in a multi-car incident that badly damaged all four corners of his JR Motorsports Chevrolet.

Through sheer will and determination, the BRANDT team went to work and, utilizing a never-give-up attitude, made the necessary repairs over the following 63 laps to get Allgaier back on track to gain one crucial position and one additional point. As a result, Allgaier leaves Las Vegas just 31 points behind the lead in The Chase standings as the series heads to Charlotte Motor Speedway next weekend.

"We just had nowhere to go there. I hate it for everyone on this BRANDT Professional Agriculture team. We had a good car but didn't get a chance to race it out there at the end. But I can't say enough for how proud I am of everyone in this group. To be able to get this car back out on the track, even for just a lap to gain a spot, shows how this team will never give up and that we will keep fighting no matter what happens. Now it's on to Charlotte. We are ready"
