GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • TONI BREIDINGER enters Watkins Glen’s Bully Hill Vineyards 176 piloting the No. 20 Chevrolet for McAnally Hilgemann Racing, facing an oversized 38-truck entry list with only 36 starting spots available.
  • The qualifying session carries massive stakes as BREIDINGER must outpace road-course specialists including Shane van Gisbergen, A.J. Allmendinger, and Connor Zilisch to avoid being among two eliminated teams.
  • Watkins Glen’s demanding 2.45-mile, 11-turn layout requires precise braking and technical cornering ability, making qualifying performance critical for BREIDINGER to secure her grid position against Cup Series veterans.
