NASCAR Cup Series: EchoPark Automotive Texas Grand Prix

Sunday May 23, 2021

Starting position: 39
Finishing position: 31

Race highlights: This road course race at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, USA saw Tilley make his NASCAR debut. A wet and wild race led to an early red flag end, foiling Team Live Fast's expertly laid fuel economy strategy. 
Quote: "This race was a baptism of fire. The Cup car is completely different to what I normally drive, and to be thrown in during a torrential downpour was challenging, but so much fun. I enjoy the wet, so I think the rain helped me be more competitive."

Sunday July 4, 2021

Starting position: 30

Tilley never gave up, chasing down the field for an exciting 250 mile race and earning him a place in the hearts of many fans. 
Quote: "I'm pleased with the pace we had, but disappointed with the result. We had the pace, just not the luck."
