Chase Elliott Might Rack Up Some Laps Led at Darlington
3 years agoChase Elliott may not necessarily win on Sunday at Darlington but he has a decent chance of leading a good number of laps. That may mean winning a stage or two. Hey, every point counts. The Hendricks Motorsports Racing driver led 114 laps last summer and nine more the summer before. It is last year's summer build with the spoiler package that the No. 9 car will try to use on Sunday once more. The "concern" with Elliott is finishing on the track. He does not have a single podium at Darlington despite being "right there" in the final laps several times. There was a crash one year, a bad restart another, etc. It does always seem to be something with Elliott at Darlington.
