NASCAR Cup Series

Brett Moffitt | No. 34 Dockside Logistics Ford "I've been to Loudon quite a bit in a K&N car. I think it's a really fun racetrack. I look forward to getting back to a short track. Obviously, I'm going in a different car this time, but a lot of it is just knowing the surface and the grooves, and how a car acts know no matter what you're driving. It helps my confidence a lot going there. It lets me focus on just doing my job driving the race car."

Jimmie Johnson: Johnson finished ninth in the Quaker State 400, recording his 13th top 10 of the year. “Junior’s wasn’t the only car that was ‘unstoppable,’” Johnson said. “Those Joe Gibbs Racing cars were as well, and it had nothing to do with brakes.

“As a family we’ve been going to New Hampshire for a long time and we’ve all had some success there,” said Truex. “It’s always been a special place for the Truex family. However, the one highlight that is missing for me is a New Hampshire Cup win.”

“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
