– Key Takeaway: Kaden Honeycutt delivered a statement effort which resulted in a career-best run tonight at Kansas Speedway. Despite starting the furthest behind of all his Niece Motorsports teammates in 23rd, he aggressively made up ground early on. By the end of stage one, the No. 45 team had positioned themselves in fifth place, and gained a spot the following run to finish fourth in stage two. Honeycutt would hold onto his track position and bring the Niece Products of Kansas Chevrolet in fourth place at the checkered flag.

– Kaden Honeycutt’s Post-Race Thoughts: Interviewer: We saw Kaden Honeycutt come up through the field early on and put up those aggressive numbers. You were the quickest truck on the racetrack for several laps; the job that the team did here tonight, what can you say about this?

“I can’t say enough about Phil Gould, Frank, Cole, Devon, Tanner; all my guys for building an amazing truck. You know, obviously I wanted to be better there myself, just needed to clean up on pit road. I lost too much time on pit road, so I’ll just go back and look at it and see where I can be better. I just wanted to thank – first of all, I wouldn’t even be here without Al Niece, Cody Efaw, Tony Valento for all the support that I get from them. My mom and dad as well, without them I wouldn’t be here at Kansas or doing any truck racing whatsoever. I just wanted to thank them and also, Niece Products of Kansas, Chevrolet, R.D.C. Shoe Company. Darren Davis, I know he’s really excited for Charlotte; that will be a heck of a race. Myself, I’m getting better. It sucks, it definitely sucks to come that close and not finish it off. But still, a great run. You’ve got to crawl before you walk, right? This is the start of something of our part-time schedule, so hopefully we can click off our first win in Charlotte in a couple of weeks.”
