Recapping Richmond
Wallace finished in the 16th position on Saturday at Richmond International Raceway after finishing sixth in his heat race and fighting a tight-handling condition throughout the main event.

QUOTE WORTHY
Wallace on racing at Talladega:
“Talladega will be intense. Restrictor-plate racing in general is crazy. We finished sixth at Daytona at the beginning of the season and I think we can improve upon that this weekend. Hopefully we can keep our car clean and survive to be there for a chance to win on Saturday.”
