The race will be Herring's
16th career start in the XFINITY Series.
"I am really thankful for
the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the No. 24 Toyota for JGL
Racing," said Herring. "I look forward to working with everyone
in Dover for the first time. Dover is a tough track and things happen
fast there. It will be important for us to work well together from the
very first lap so we get to know each other well and build a strong
relationship. I have had the pleasure of being around the team in the
shop and I know they are a hard working group of guys. I am confident we
will all work together well and get better with every lap we make in practice,
qualifying and the race."
In his previous 15 NASCAR
XFINITY Series starts, Herring has earned two Pole Awards, five Top-10 and one
Top-5 finish. He also has one career start in the NASCAR Camping World
Truck Series to his credit, which netted him another Top 10 finish.
"We are excited to add
Drew to the JGL Racing organization and The Young Guns program," added
James Whitener, owner of JGL Racing. "While he has limited starts in
the Series, he has countless hours of seat time as a test driver. We feel
that he is a perfect fit for the Young Guns program and we look forward to
having him behind the wheel of our No. 24 Toyota in Dover."
Herring joins Matt Tifft,
Corey Lajoie and Brandon McReynolds as participants in the JGL Racing Young
Guns program.
