Nashville Blues: DiBenedetto Battles to 29th in Tennessee Lottery 250
The Tennessee Lottery 250 at Nashville Superspeedway was a race filled with ups and downs for Matt DiBenedetto and his team. Coming off a frustrating finish at New Hampshire, they were looking to rebound and showcase their potential on Nashville’s 1.33-mile oval. Unfortunately, handling issues with the car made for a challenging day on the track.
Matt started the race in decent form, but early on, it became apparent that the car’s handling wasn’t where it needed to be. The team made adjustments during pit stops, trying to dial in the setup for more grip and balance, but the changes never quite hit the mark. Despite these challenges, Matt fought hard to stay competitive, making the most of late-race restarts to salvage a 29th-place finish.
After the race, Matt acknowledged the difficulty of the day but remained optimistic. “We were just battling the car all day,” Matt explained. “The guys worked hard to make adjustments, but we couldn’t quite get the balance right. Still, we kept pushing, and we’ll take what we learned into the next race. Huge thanks to ReMA for sticking with us, and we’re determined to bring home a stronger result next time.”
While it wasn’t the finish they hoped for, Matt and his team left Nashville ready to keep grinding and improve in the upcoming races.
