“My Dad’s been on me for years about starts, I’m one of the worst people in the world at starting a race,” Heckenast said. “With [crew member] T.C. being here and taking over the setups, I’ve been focusing on my driving and starts, and I felt like the race was won at the start.
“If Tyler [Bruening] got the lead on the first lap, I don’t know if I would’ve gotten around him.”
