This week, Brayden Hill broke an 8-race winless streak by mastering one of the most difficult tracks on the circuit, the Charlotte Motor Speedway "Roval," a combination of the normal oval track configuration and it's infield road course. Hill started the race from the 3rd place grid position, only 0.2 seconds slower than the race's pole sitter. It was through strategy and the help of his Spotter and Crew Chief, Josh Coppernoll, that the team was able to outsmart and outrun their competitors. While the majority of the field cut the race in half, only stopping once for fuel and tires, Hill and Coppernoll elected to break the 55 lap race into 3 parts; 20 laps, 20 laps, and 15 laps. Because of how much time the iRacingiFlag sponsored Mustang was able to gain while on new tires, they made up the time that they spent making an extra pitstop and still had tires good enough to chase down the leader from over 20 seconds back in the last 10 laps of the race. Hill led a total of 17 laps in the race.
