Fr8Auctions 250 | Talladega Superspeedway Race AdvanceTeam: No. 22 GO TEXAN | AM Technical Solutions Chevrolet SilveradoDriver: Austin Wayne SelfFollow the Team: @NieceMotorsport; @AustinWSelfSelf on Racing at Talladega: “I’m really looking forward to going to Talladega this weekend. I really enjoy the fundamentals of restrictor plate racing and I’ve had relatively good success there and hope to build on that on Saturday.“The mojo around the shop has been good the last couple of weeks. We needed that top-10 at Las Vegas. We’ve been working hard over the last couple of months and it was awesome to have a solid night at the track and have a result that gives us something to build on for these final five races.“Plate racing is so unpredictable. If you can keep the fenders on the truck, you have a shot. We proved that at Daytona and we’re ready to prove that again. It’s going to be a crazy race. Everyone wants to win Talladega. It’s a cutoff race for the Playoffs and it will be one of the strongest fields of the year.“We just have to mind our manners – let the race play out and be ready to capitalize when the opportunity allows. It would be very cool to put the Niece Motorsports team in Victory Lane.”Self at Talladega: Self has two previous NASCAR Camping World Truck Series starts at Talladega Superspeedway, coming in 2016 and 2017. In 2016, Self led one lap, and earned his best Talladega finish of 14th.Self also has two ARCA Racing Series starts at the 2.66-mile track.
