"I think there is going to be a big difference with how we handle in the draft from February to July at Daytona (International Speedway). With this lower downforce package, every ounce of downforce matters. When the temperature starts to rise 20 to 30 degrees that's a pretty significant change and the track will start getting greasier and people start slipping and sliding more. It's crazy but for Daytona being a plate track it isn't that big. It's tight to begin with and when you get cars slipping and sliding there isn't any room for mistakes. Hopefully, we can avoid the wrecks and get ourselves some stage points."
