2 years agoA.J. Allmendinger qualified 14th at Nashville for the Ally 400 on Sunday evening. That was a bit of a surprise for the Kaulig Racing driver who usually has issues on hybrid tracks. Allmendinger watched his brakes fail at Dover but was not running well. Despite that, he managed a tenth at Gateway which was a surprise. That being said, the high track temps combined with the tri-oval may be too much for the No. 16 Chevy to overcome. His longer speed runs were not the greatest and fell off particularly in the late sectors. Allmendinger may not tail off until after Stage 2. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
