“I really like flat track racing, and I like short track racing. Loudon is a pretty tough track because it’s really unique. I feel like we had a good run there and we can go back and do the same in our Zest Mustang. We’re going to try out a couple of short track things we learned at Iowa and see if it will apply here.”
“Loudon has been a great track for our FedEx team over the years. We have excelled at the short tracks and New Hampshire is a flat oval that really suits my driving style. We have had some races there where we were the dominant car, and others where we’ve had to work a bit to stay up front.

“New Hampshire is a track I enjoy racing on. I love short-track racing, and the corners and the speeds there kind of lend itself to that style. It’s just a little bit frustrating that I haven’t won there because I feel like it’s a track that I should be capable of winning.” - Dale Earnhardt Jr. on racing at New Hampshire
