Pit Road Crash Ends Logano and Custer's Texas Races

Overview

• The pit-road collision, which unfolded Sunday during Stage 2, ended the races for Joey Logano and Cole Custer at Texas Motor Speedway.
• Ty Gibbs pulled out of his stall as Custer approached, forcing the No. 41 to slow on pit road.
• Logano, accelerating out of his own box, struck Custer's rear and tore apart his left-front fender and wheel, ending the No. 22's day in 36th.
• Custer’s car took right-rear damage and went behind the wall, and Christopher Bell was already out after Todd Gilliland’s wreck collected the No. 20.
• Many teams opted for two-tire stops to gain track position, a faster move that sends cars back into a tight lane at once and raises the chance of sudden check-ups and contact.
