No. 14 IAVA Toyota Camry… Crew Chief Eddie Pardue and the No. 14 crew will unload chassis No. 122 for Friday’s O’Reilly Auto Parts 300 at Texas Motor Speedway.
First Timer … This weekend’s O’Reilly Auto Parts 300 will be the first time that XFINITY Series Rookie of the Year contender Cale Conley will turn laps at Texas Motor Speedway. The 22-year-old has prior experience competing at intermediate tracks, posting his best start of fourth and a best finish of sixth at Kentucky Speedway.
Welcome Back … The Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) return as primary sponsor of the No. 14 Toyota Camry this weekend at Auto Club Speedway. Founded in 2004 by an Iraq veteran, the IAVA has quickly become the nation’s largest nonprofit, nonpartisan organization representing new veterans and their families. With nearly 300,000 veterans and civilian supporters nationwide, IAVA is the only 21st Century veterans’ service organization (VSO) dedicated to standing with the 2.8 million veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan from their first day home through the rest of their lives.
Pardue at Texas … Pardue is no stranger to success at the Fort Worth track. He has sat atop the pit box here 14 times in his career garnering one pole, three top-fives, five top-10s, 38 laps led, and a best finish of second that came with Greg Biffle in 2006.
Catch the Action … Friday’s XFINITY Series race at Texas Motor Speedway will be televised live April 10th beginning at 6:30 p.m. ET on FOX Sports 1 and broadcast live on the Performance Racing Network and SIRIUS XM Channel 90.

Cale Conley Quotes:
“I have never been to Texas Motor Speedway, so there will be quite the learning curve this weekend. But I feel like these experiences really help me to grow as a driver. Once we get through Texas, there is a string of tracks that I have raced at before. But I think if we carry on the momentum from California, we’ll have a great opportunity to run well at Texas.”
