After leading the first ARCA Menards Series practice yesterday at Pocono Raceway, Ty Gibbs followed suit by leading the final practice session ahead of tonight’s (June 25) General Tire #AnywhereIsPossible 200.
Gibbs posted the fastest time at 52.625 seconds, 0.682 seconds ahead of the second quickest Corey Heim.
Making his first ARCA start this year at Pocono, Sam Mayer clocked in third fastest in his first race with Bret Holmes Racing.
Venturini Motorsports teammates Chandler Smith and Drew Dollar rounded out the top five,. Smith will be one of several ARCA drivers competing in double duty this race weekend at Pocono.
Jack Wood, Kyle Sieg, Nick Sanchez, Andy Jankowiak and Thad Moffitt rounded out the top 10.
Greg Van Alst attempted to make his eighth career ARCA start, but misfortune struck him in this practice session. He hit the outside wall off turn 1, then spun into the inside wall. The damage to his No. 35 Chevrolet is too extensive, leaving him unable to compete in the race tonight.
