It looks like Noah Gragson has overcooked the bacon, just a bit.
What looked like a promising practice session for Noah Gragson, has turned into some early-race adversity in Sunday’s Grant Park 220 at the Chicago Street Course, getting involved in his second incident of the afternoon.
CAUTION ?@NoahGragson is stuck in the tire barriers at the exit of Turn 6. He will be able to continue.
Seems to be the trouble spot early on.#NASCAR #NASCARChicago pic.twitter.com/J7HfbyiygA

Gragson, driving the No. 42 Baconator Chevrolet Camaro for LEGACY MOTOR CLUB, slid into the tire barrier at turn six, as the race approaches the end of the first stage.
The conditions are still pretty treacherous, as low-grip areas on the track have caught a couple of drivers off guard, including areas that include the painted lines that you would see on residential streaks.
The Las Vegas, Nevada native would be able to continue without any major damage but would fall one lap off the pace of the leaders, as the AMR Safety Team got his Chevrolet extracted from the tire barrier.
