Good morning!

After chasing down some mechanical issues on Thursday, Vaughn and his Mustang RTR team had his Spec 5-D dialed in Friday. Scoring an 86 on both qualifying runs, Vaughn showcased his consistency behind the wheel at Evergreen Speedway, but fell victim to a competitive field settling for a 21st qualifying spot. One final practice session remains this morning to fine tune the car and strategize for the main event where Vaughn will face Pat Goodin in the Top 32 later this afternoon.

The Top 32 livestream for Saturday’s competition begins today at 4:30pm (EDT) on Vaughn’s Facebook channel: https://www.facebook.com/officialvaughngittinjr
