Chris Gayle didn’t expect to be an Xfinity Series crew chief this year for Joe Gibbs Racing, but once the decision was made, Gayle decided he was going to show it was a mistake. Gayle admits there is ego involved going from the Cup Series to Xfinity Series; the thought of going for an owner’s championship versus a driver’s championship; getting his racing start in Arkansas; transferring to UNC Charlotte; if he ever had thoughts that he’d make it in NASCAR; landing at Joe Gibbs Racing; winning races with Kyle Busch as an engineer; engineer versus crew chief; insight on what isn’t seen about Ty Gibbs; his Poindexter Twitter handle.
