The Tweaker Energy Shot Toyota started off with extremely loose conditions and closed fighting a tight condition.

Bliss still occupies the 13^th position in the Nationwide Series Driver Point Standings, -21 points behind 12^th.

Bliss: “I wish we could have earned a better finish for Tweaker at their home track. It wasn’t for a lack of effort. We just missed it, we were off on balance with the car. It started out loose and was tight at the end. I can’t thank Tweaker enough for coming on board, I looked forward to next weekend’s race with them in Phoenix.”
