Pre-Race

Derrike will drive the #4 Chevrolet for Jay Robinson Racing in Charlotte. Before the weekend, he said, "I am excited about this coming weekend. I think we will have a good race car with the test going the way that it did. We will certainly be a bit cautious through practice and qualifying to get to the race. I am really looking forward to getting to run the entire race and cannot wait. The entire Jay Robinson Racing team is working hard to prepare this car. I will go back to the shop on Wednesday morning for the final fitting."
