Sieg's car caught air, did a blowover, landed on its roof, and scraped on its roof while hitting the inside wall passenger side first before it entered the grass and flipped his car back on all four wheels. Sieg was able to climb out of his car and was unhurt. Sieg would be placed in 28th to finish the race.

For the final 5 races of the season, Kyle and his brother Ryan switched car numbers with Kyle going to the 39 and Ryan to the 28 as Ryan was trying to get his No. 28 more owners points.
