Sounding Off – Cameron Hayley:
What are your thoughts on Atlanta? You’re going back for the second time this year; do you feel better about the track?
“Atlanta was probably one of my biggest struggles last year. Daytona is kind of an exhibition race, there’s not a whole lot of handling that goes into it. Atlanta will be the first race that Eddie (Troconis), my new crew chief and I, will get to know each other, and how each other works. We’ve definitely been working really hard, as a pair, to get to know what each other wants – just knowing what changes he needs to make off of what I’m feeling. It’s definitely a difficult race track, I have a lot to learn, but hopefully I can take what I learned last year and apply it to this year.”
Is it difficult going back to a track you haven’t seen in 365 days?
“It’s difficult going back to a place, like Atlanta, that you only visit once a year. I made a lot of notes last year, so I have that to look back on. I’m pretty good at remembering the track layouts, but I’m sure there are things that I’ll have to re-learn again once I get there. Like I said earlier, Atlanta is one of the first real race tracks that we have to worry about handling, and tire management, but I’m looking forward to it.”
