Hamlin Conversation – Nashville

What do you expect going to Nashville this weekend?

“Nashville is a fun racetrack and a great market for us to go to. The track is a lot different than anywhere else we race at being that size and a concrete surface. I felt like the Next Gen car raced really well there last year. We were able to have a long back-and-forth battle for the lead, and it seemed like there were multiple grooves, so I feel like this week should be no different. I’m looking forward to going there and hopefully we can put ourselves in contention at the end of the race.”

 

FedEx Ground Along for the Ride at Nashville Superspeedway: For this weekend’s race at Nashville Superspeedway, Hamlin’s FedEx Ground Toyota Camry TRD will feature TEAM on the b-post to recognize the hard work of team members who continue to deliver quality service to customers.
