Kevin Harvick, driver of the No. 4 Jimmy John’s Chevrolet SS for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), knows track position will be key to winning when the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series visits New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon for Sunday’s New Hampshire 301.
“It’s flat and tough to get around, sometimes. You just have to make sure you get through the corners OK and are able to get on the gas quick on the straightaways. It’s tough but, if you have a good car, you can pass and move up through the field. But it can be challenging if it’s not working in your favor.”
Roush Fenway Racing heads to northern New England this weekend as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) prepares for 301 miles at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. A Roush Fenway Ford has earned nine victories at the 1.058-mile oval. Also, it is pronounced ‘Cahncahd,’ not ‘Concord.’
“When I look back at 2015, Loudon is a place that we had a really good car,” he said. “The results won’t show it, but we definitely had good speed all weekend.” “Not only were we fast in just about every practice, but we led round one of qualifying.”
“Loudon is one of the more unique race tracks that we race at. It’s a little bit flatter one mile race track. The thing I like about it is you can diamond the corner or run down on the apron a little bit and up the race track.
"New Hampshire is a really tough track to get a hold of. You always seem to fight being loose into the corner because it's the only way you can keep your car turning good through the center. So it is a tough balance of where you need your car to be so it will be crucial for us to maximize our practice time on Friday and get our No. 28 Toyota dialed in."
