A.J. Allmendinger resigns with JTG Daugherty through 2020

A.J. Allmendinger has extended his contract with JTG Daugherty Racing to drive their #47 Chevrolet in the Sprint Cup Series through the end of the 2020 season. Allmendinger, who debuted in NASCAR's top series in 2007, was reinstated following a suspension for failing a drug test in 2012, resulting in his dismissal from the Team Penske #22 Dodge. He took over the #47 car, then a Toyota, from veteran Bobby Labonte midway through 2013, and took it to his first Cup win at the Watkins Glen road course last August.
