Ben Rhodes Starts on the Pole at Road America; Tire Issue Ends Promising Run

“All in all, I have a lot I learned today – pacing once again was the big issue. Early on, the guys went a lot harder charging for positions in the front than I thought they would and that put me in a bad spot several times. I lost some spots, got a little greedy trying to make them up and went off the track. We had to pit to get the grille clean, which put us around some bad cars and ultimately lead to our demise today.”
