After sitting out last weekend’s event in Montreal because of a concussion suffered during a pair of accidents at BMS, Eric McClure is ready to get back in the car at AMS.

• The Great Clips 300 will mark the Virginia driver’s 131^st career NNS start if he can earn one of the 43 starting positions.

• Historically, AMS hasn’t been one of McClure’s favorite tracks on the circuit as he has suffered two DNFs in three starts.  His 2007 debut resulted in a 37^th-place finish because of a gear failure and an accident in 2008 relegated the team to a 33^rd-place finish.

• TRM will utilize chassis number 35 this weekend at AMS.  It was last used at Nashville Superspeedway in June where it recorded a 26^th-place finish.

Eric McClure quotes:

“I am really looking forward to getting back in the car this weekend at AMS.  The team had a great finish last weekend and I believe if we can get the car qualified we can improve on my finish here last year and that would be another great weekend for the team.”
