Van Gisbergen, whose only previous NASCAR oval track experience came last season in a Truck race at the Indianapolis Raceway Park short track, had a rough debut in last Friday’s ARCA season opener, getting caught up in an accident on lap 3 of 83.
He managed to eventually return to the track in his damaged car and was the last car running in the race at 29th, spinning a second time while trying to avoid a mid-race wreck.
