BRIAN SCOTT QUOTES:
What do you think about Las Vegas Motor Speedway?
“I love Las Vegas [Motor Speedway]; I wish it were one of those tracks we raced at twice. Last year we were fast and were challenging for the lead, but got sucked around and wrecked. I love the track, and I think these Camaros’ will be really fast, all the numbers from last year to this year show that it’s a better car. Phil [Gould, Crew Chief] and this team keep getting better and better with each race. Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a really unforgiving track. The tire combination and the high banked, layout combined with the dusty asphalt makes it a slick, unforgiving track in the hot, Nevada Sun. It’s more slick and slippery than other tracks like Atlanta Motor Speedway, where you can control a pretty loose race car a lot more.”
