Seems Jay joined on during a time they were behind the 8-ball mechanically

He had a couple top 5s and a couple top 10s in two seasons, I was hoping he would break thru and be in Trucks this year

He's back at the local scene now, The local talent has surpassed him too.... Hopefully he get's another crack at it
