YOU ARE RUNNING A SPECIAL PAINT SCHEME AT DARLINGTON, WHICH IS A THROWBACK HONOR OF YOUR CAREER AS A DRIVER. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN TO YOU?

Earlier this week, as part of Charlotte Motor Speedway’s Mission 600, Coca-Cola Family Racing driver Austin Dillon and his Richard Childress Racing pit crew traded high-intensity workout routines with soldiers from U.S. Army Central Kuwait.

Kyle Larson, driver of the No. 5 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE, on Darlington Throwback scheme: “Every year when the throwback race comes around, you try to think of past NASCAR paint schemes, so it was really cool that Hendrick Motorsports and Mr. H (Rick Hendrick) allowed me to throwback to my first go-kart.

A completely new era in stock car racing is ushered in today as Ford unveils its all-new 2022 NASCAR Next Gen Mustang to the public in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Next Gen Mustang will compete in the NASCAR Cup Series starting next season.

Matt DiBenedetto and the No. 21 Menards/Dutch Boy team head into Darlington Raceway and Sunday’s Goodyear 400 hoping to continue their recent string of success, which includes a top-10 finish at Richmond followed by back-to-back top-fives, at Talladega and Kansas.

WITH THE NEXT GEN UNVEIL TODAY, DO YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF HOW THIS CAR WILL DRIVE DIFFERENTLY THAN THE CURRENT CAR? “I’ve actually got no clue. I haven’t driven it. I haven’t even gotten to see it."

WHAT MAKES DARLINGTON SUCH A CHALLENGING TRACK FROM THE DRIVER’S SEAT? “The challenge lies within the layout and the asphalt at that track."

The first of two trips to Darlington Raceway is on tap this weekend for the 12th race of the NASCAR Cup Series campaign, as the sport celebrates the annual #NASCARThrowback weekend. Jack Roush has 20 wins all-time at ‘The Lady in Black,’ including five in the NCS.
