\u201cI\u2019m looking for a strong finish,\u201d said Self.\u00a0 \u201cWe\u2019re coming off two decent back-to-back races and starting to build up some momentum.\u00a0 Our AM Racing team continues to work hard. Lately our Tundra seems to get stronger every week \u2013 and this week will be no different.\u00a0 I like our chances of bringing home our first top-10 of the season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Self, a rookie in the NCWTS, will drive his now familiar No.22 AM Technical Solutions Toyota under the lights in Saturday\u2019s feature.<\/p>\n

Set in the shadows of St. Louis\u2019s famous arch, Gateway Motorsports Park, located across the Mississippi River in Madison, Illinois, is the sight of the series ninth event of the 2016 NCWTS season.<\/p>\n

This will be Self\u2019s first trip to the 1.25 mile-paved track and diverse motorsports complex.<\/p>\n

Averaging a 19.6 finish, Self currently occupies the 18th<\/sup>\u00a0position in the overall NCWTS driver championship point standings.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt a third of the way into the NASCAR Camping World Truck season, we couldn\u2019t be more proud of how Austin and his team are performing. He\u2019s currently ranked 10th<\/sup>\u00a0in Rookie Points and 18th<\/sup>\u00a0overall. The team is keeping company with a lot of very talented and experienced drivers, and is learning how to compete at a higher level with each race.\u00a0 We are particularly proud of how the No. 22 Team has battled through bang-ups a few times this season, and has managed to finish each race, which is so important for the point race. We are all looking forward to another exciting race at Gateway Motorsports Park and will be pulling for Austin and team to bring home their First Top 10 finish!\u201d says Dan Codi, CEO of AM Technical Solutions.
