SVG shined in the New Hampshire rain as he led 30 laps and pulled a 7 second lead before a caution mandating everyone go to dry tires cut his lead. The 97 (and trackhouse as a whole) struggled in the dry conditions and SVG plummeted as a result. Ryan Preece had a solid day and cut the points deficit on the Chase cutoff to 31 points heading to the final race at Daytona.
