You’re in the Car of Tomorrow again this weekend. How do you think the different car will affect the racing at Richmond?
“I think it will still be a great race, but it’s definitely going to have a different face on it. You’re going to have to move around on the track more during the race to get the car to work, since the COT car doesn’t handle as well.
“I don’t think it’s going to cause anyone to cut back on the beating and banging and leaning on one another, though. Some people think the COT is more fragile, but I think we’ll see some guys testing that theory out on Saturday night. ”
Is Richmond like most other tracks, where the best way around is to stay right down on the bottom?
“No, not really. At Richmond, I’d say the outer line is probably the preferred line during the race, once the ‘new’ wears off the tires, at least. The best place to pass is getting up off both corners. ”
