Third year Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series driver, Chris Buescher is turning some heads early in 2018.

The 25-year-old, who wheels the No. 37 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for JTG Daugherty Racing, captured the third top-five finish of his career in the season-opening Daytona 500. It was an impressive finish, but at restrictor plate races anyone can have a good day so long as they avoid the carnage.

The Prosper, Texas native is far more impressed with how his team performed this week in the Pennzoil 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

It has been a great start to the 2018 season for Ryan Truex and Kaulig Racing. The duo, which came together in the offseason after the team parted ways with longtime driver Blake Koch, sits fourth in the NASCAR Xfinity Series championship standings after Atlanta Motor Speedway.

The 25-year-old driver guided his No. 11 Chevrolet Camaro to two Top-10 finishes (seventh at Daytona, ninth at Atlanta) to start the season, which marks the first time that Kaulig Racing has ever finished inside the Top-10 in two consecutive races. Truex isn’t satisfied and wants to make more history for the team this week in the Boyd Gaming 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
