Back to The Finger Lakes … Jack Wood, driver of the No. 91 Adaptive One Calipers Chevrolet RST is ready to head Northeast for only his second start at Watkins Glen International (WGI) and NASCAR’s CRAFTSMAN Truck Series (NCTS) return to the 2.45-mile road course. The sanctioning body has not ran an event at “The Glen” since 2021. In that 61-lap event, Wood rounded out the field with a 25th-place finish and is looking to improve on that stat this Friday evening on the hilly road course. This will be loyal primary partner, Adaptive One Caliper’s first start at WGI riding along side the No. 91 Chevrolet as they are also hunting down their first win of the season with the young driver.
Lefts and Rights … The NCTS is taking on their second road course circuit of the 2025 season at WGI with eight races remaining in the season and one of which is the final road course, the Charlotte Roval. In his NCTS career, the Loomis, Calif. native carries eight total road course starts with a best of 13th coming last season in 2024 at COTA with McAnally Hilgemann Racing. The young driver is determined to turn his season around and take on the left and rights of WGI.
Tune In … Television coverage on the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series event will begin Friday morning with practice and qualifying starting at 11:35 a.m. ET on FOX Sports 2 followed by the green flag at 5:00 p.m. ET on FOX Sports 1.

Jack Wood Quote:
“I am ready for redemption at another road course, that is for sure. Our last road course start at Lime Rock, we were really headed in the right direction with our No. 91 Chevrolet and got collected in the chaos towards the end there that ruined our afternoon. I enjoy road course racing, we just have not had the best of luck. This No. 91 team has worked really hard in the off-week to set me up with a pretty solid road course package and I am looking forward to seeing what we can do up at Watkins Glen on Friday.”
