Dale Earnhardt Jr. describes challenges of Bristol ahead of Xfinity qualifying
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is making his first and final start in the Xfinity Series this season in Friday’s Food City 300 at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Ahead of qualifying, Earnhardt discussed the challenges that Bristol presents this year, as opposed to last year when he finished 30th.
“The track’s a lot different than it was last year, car’s real chattery, skipping around back and the front,” Earnhardt told NBC Sports. “Felt like I had to underdrive the car a lot more this year just because it would slide the rear end or the front through the center. We’re not going to have the bottom of the track this year. I loved it last year, running on the bottom and I don’t know if that’s gonna be there. I was surprised last night that the tracks hung on the way it did, but we’ll see how it goes.
“We’ll have to go where the speed’s at and hopefully, that’s the bottom and the top.”
Earnhardt, the NASCAR Hall of Famer,
“You gotta learn so much in every corner very quickly and process it as much as you can and hopefully you do a good job and don’t slip tonight,” Earnhardt said.
