Jack Lagasee picked up the 5th last place finish of his SCRL Busch Grand National Series career in Wednesday's Busch 200 at the Langley Field Speedway when his #28 Skoal Bandit Pontiac completed all 20 laps under power.

In the SCRL Busch Series, it's the 5th for car #28 and the 36th for running at the finish. Across all the series in the SCRL, it's the 17th for the #28 and 303rd for running at the finish.
After trailing for the fourth time in his busch career in the last round at IRP, Jack was looking to get momentum at a track Jack has a best finish of 1st in 5 starts.
The entry list for the tenth time this season would have only full time drivers as the series returned to Hampton, Virginia in the series second and final stop at the 0.395 short track in Season 3.
