Brad Keselowski Racing NCWTS Preview: New Hampshire Motor Speedway Keys To The Race
Finesse is a must for a driver at NHMS Driver has many options at both ends of the track to make his truck turn better Track position is critical at a place where passing is a challenge Teams must execute well in qualifying and have excellent pit stops Truck must rotate well thru the center of the corner and get pointed straight off, can’t be loose on entry or exit. Crew Chiefs might mix up strategies in an effort to keep track position Trucks can be difficult to turn in the center of the corner because they carry so much speed

Chase Briscoe: “I’m ready for the playoffs to start. I feel like our Cooper Standard team has a lot of speed right now. We are bringing a Ford F-150 that was really good at Gateway, which is a flat track like New Hampshire. I’ve never seen the racetrack before, so hopefully we can get up to speed quick and see where we stack up against the seven other playoff drivers. It’s important not to make any mistakes this weekend. I feel like you don’t necessarily race your way into round two; it’s more that you race your way out of advancing by making mistakes.”
