From the first lap to the last, it’s been an adventure I’ll never forget. Thank you all for your support throughout my career. Here’s to new beginnings.”

COLE CUSTER, No. 00 Haas Automation Ford Mustang -- CAN YOU JUST TALK ABOUT YOUR NIGHT TONIGHT? “Yeah, it is a little bittersweet because you win one and you lose one. It means a lot to our team to win the owners championship. When we started last year, it is unbelievable how far we have come and how hard everyone has worked.
