Speedy threesome

With a drafting trio that included 58-year-old Bill Elliott, his 18-year-old son Chase Elliott and teammate Regan Smith, JR Motorsports paced the Saturday afternoon NASCAR Nationwide Series test session at Daytona International Speedway.

Chase Elliott paced the three-car JRM train at 187.993 mph, with his father at 187.974 mph and Smith at 187.950 mph.

Nationwide teams spent considerably more time in drafting practice than their Sprint Cup counterparts had done a day earlier. The largest pack in Saturday’s action included nine cars.
