Race Rundown – No. 42 Premier Security Solutions Chevrolet Silverado
Hocevar led twice for race-high 57 laps in Friday night’s North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at Charlotte Motor Speedway and held just over a six-second lead when Jesse Little and Tyler Ankrum brought out the caution in turn three with four laps to go.
Hocevar chose the inside lane for the final restart with the No. 17 of Ryan Preece on the outside as the two led the field into turn one for the first attempt at overtime. The two ran side-by-side on lap 136 when Hocevar got loose and slid up the track into Preece, damaging both vehicles and bringing out the caution.
The No. 42 team worked to repair ride side and rear damage to their Chevrolet under caution and salvaged a 16th-place finish following the second and final overtime attempt.
Hocevar on his strong run and disappointing finish at Charlotte: “Our No. 42 Premier Security Solutions Chevrolet was the class of the field tonight, unfortunately we didn’t have the finish to show for it in the end. Unfortunately, those situations can happen during a green-white-checkered finish on old tires and we came out on the wrong end of it. If we weren’t going to get the win, I’m glad the checkered flag stayed in the company and congratulations to Ross [Chastain], the hard-working people of Niece Motorsports, and Worldwide Express for parking it in victory lane tonight.”
