It’s a celebration of legacy. A toast to my family’s history in the No.10 and the runners that shaped racing as we know it today. It’s been so fun to blend my passions together into this project and create a damn good drinking bourbon. I hope y’all enjoy! Grab your bottle at TenRunner.com, take a moment to slow down, and toast to the road ahead.

And it was super cool to pay that off and have their whole team here. It was a big night. It was a lot of things culminating, and I thought it deserved one," he added.Ryan Blaney led 27 laps in the 160-lap race and crossed the finish line 0.031 seconds ahead of Daniel Suarez.
