DANIEL HEMRIC, NO. 8 CESSNA CAMARO ZL1 Breakout Session Selected Highlights:

HOW DO YOU MANAGE THE CHAOS THIS NEW PACKAGE BRINGS WHEN EVERYBODY IS SO CLOSE TOGETHER AND PEOPLE ARE MAKING BOLD MOVES AND YOU’RE SIDE-DRAFTING AND GETTING INTO EACH OTHER. HOW DO YOU MANAGE RISK VS. REWARD?
“It’s kind of trial and error. You can find out things and moves you can make and feel confident in it and make it work. It’s all pretty relative. We all know what we’re all fighting and how our cars shift and balance-wise versus how you cover up a guys nose or how close you get to the back bumper in certain situations. You know pretty quickly throughout a race whose car is better at certain places and what your car is capable of. It’s managing those variables in whatever situation you find yourself in and having this much knowledge from lap one until the checkered flag flies. Being able to relay the information is a big thing.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Charlotte–Coca-Cola 600–Daniel Hemric →

CHRIS BUESCHER, NO. 37 KROGER THRILL OF THE GRILL CAMARO ZL1 Media Breakout Session Highlights:

HOW DISAPPOINTED ARE YOU BEING BETWEEN WIN NUMBER ONE AND EVENTUALLY GETTING WIN NUMBER TWO?
“It’s hard. You never think it’s going to be easy going to the next level, but you always want it to be. You want to be able to go out and have success. It’s been awhile since then to get back into victory lane. We are steadily closer. I think this year has gotten us closer to another win. Everyone has been working really hard, with Kroger, Bush’s Baked Beans, Clorox, Scott Products. Everyone is in this thing together to get another win and get ourselves into the Chase. Steady progress is sort of the name of the game. We made some big improvements in the off season. We are ahead of where we were at the end of last season and that’s awesome to see.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Coca-Cola 600 Chris Buescher →

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 CREDIT ONE BANK CAMARO ZL1 Media Breakout Session Highlights:

YOU’VE HAD GREAT SPEED FOR MUCH OF THE SEASON, BUT NOW WITH THIS ALL-STAR WIN, DOES IT FEEL LIKE THE MONKEY IS OFF YOUR BACK TO BUILD SOME MOMENTUM?
“I hope so. I felt like we’ve had decent speed. I was surprised to get a win like that last weekend. I didn’t feel like we had the ‘winning speed’, but we were able to execute and get good restarts during the All-Star Race. If we can continue to do that and continue to improve our cars even more, then I feel like we can contend for wins. It’s still going to take a lot of hard work, but I was happy to win that last weekend. Win it for our sponsors and Chevy. Our Hendrick engines have been running really well. We just have to keep it going.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Charlotte–Coca-Cola 600–Kyle Larson →

YOU HAVE ONE TRACK AT CHARLOTTE UNDER YOUR BELT, THE ROVAL, WHAT’S IT LIKE COMING HOME TO A LOT OF FRIENDS AND FAMILY?
“Yeah, it feels great. This is the most important race for me of the year. These two weeks are good. They didn’t go so great last year, but they’re going better so far. The All-Star race went really well for us for the most part. And practice today has gone well. So, I’m excited for it. Our car has good speed so far this weekend, which is promising. And, it’s great to be home and be able to sleep in your own bed and wake up and go to the race track. It feels like the old days.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Coca Cola 600 →

SELECTED QUOTES FROM DRIVERS
MAY 23, 2019

TEAM PENSKE DRIVERS JOSEF NEWGARDEN, HELIO CASTRONEVES, WILL POWER AND SIMON PAGENAUD PARTICIPATED IN INDY 500 MEDIA DAY. SELECTED QUOTES FROM EACH DRIVER:

JOSEF NEWGARDEN, NO. 2 SH:ELL V POWER CHEVROLET:

JOSEF NEWGARDEN: I don’t know, good question. I think it’s hard to be an underdog when you’re a Penske driver. I really do, just because we’ve all got great equipment. We’ve all seen each other’s stuff. We’ve all been able to follow each other quite closely. Yeah, I think we’re all ‑‑ we’ve all got a great shot. For sure Helio has got great credentials. Everyone knows that. Will is now on the credential list with his victory last year, but Simon and me, I think we’re right there with them, and it’s hard to beat these guys. You’d like to think it’s hard for them to beat me, but we thrive off that, as a team environment we thrive off trying to beat each other in a positive way, and I think it helps push us to be better than the rest. So I think we’ve got a good shot. Continue reading Chevy Racing–INDYCAR–Indy 500 Media Day →
