There are always unknowns about where you stack up when showing up to Round 1, but McAdoo was confident he was capable of turning out a podium finish. He battled with his teammate Hammaker in his heat, where he would take the win.
In the main event, McAdoo got out to a great start in second, but a red flag forced a full restart. On the second start, he was pushed back to fifth after the first turn and quickly pushed his way up to second by Lap 3. He tried to make a push for the leader but was a little too far back by the time he got to second and had to settle for runner-up.
“Tonight was a great way to start the season and we are in a good position going forward,” said McAdoo. “It feels good to see all our hard work pay off. We’ll keep at it over the next two weeks and come out swinging in Daytona.” |
