Germán Quiroga on Charlotte Motor Speedway:
Talk about what you learned as a driver during the test at Texas Motor Speedway?
“Testing at Texas was a great experience. Dan (Stillman, crew chief) made a lot of changes and was sure to explain each one to me so I can better understand our Toyota Tundra should we need adjustments during a race – we know what works better for us. Also, I felt more relaxed driving and with more confidence. I’m very happy to have this opportunity with NET10 Wireless and to see how Red Horse Racing is working hard on improvement and having success in the future. We’ll start this weekend in Charlotte; we are going to be fast.
What is most exciting to you about racing at a track for the first time?
“Racing in Charlotte is going to be a great experience, not only because it is going to be my first time here but because I feel it is now like my home track. Each time you feel at home you try to do the best that you can, also I will have the support of new friends that I have met here so having them at the track is going to be special.”
