After top qualifying run, CollegeComplete.com hopes for top finish by Lofton in Kentucky

Sea Cliff, NY…...Justin Lofton piloted the #6 CollegeComplete.com Chevrolet to a 7th place start as the race began. 

In a day where passing was not something that happened often, Justin had to deal with a few issues to be able to bring his Chevrolet to a 15th place finish.   These included an issue in the pits where a tube disconnected from the gas can as well as a strong vibration towards the end of the race which turned out to be damage to the wheel itself.
