Hayley happy to be Texas bound for Friday’s Winstar World Casino 400k

After the “Monster Mile” got the best of NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) Sunoco Rookie of the Year contender, Cameron Hayley in last Friday’s Lucas Oil 200 at Dover (Del.) International Speedway, the 18-year-old driver had to settle for a 21st-place finish when engine issues ended his day early.

 

Already focusing his attention on the next race on the 2015 NCWTS schedule, Hayley is anxious for his first return trip to Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth for Friday’s WinStar World Casino 400k. Making his NCWTS “Lone Star State” debut at the end of 2014, Hayley qualified an admirable fifth and maintained a top-15 position throughout the majority of the race. However, late race cautions, coupled with a green-white-checkered flag attempt, resulted in a 10th-place finish for the Canadian driver. 

 

Hoping to improve upon his last visit to the fast-paced mile-and-a-half track, the No. 13 Cabinets by Hayley Toyota Tundra driver has more experience under his belt this time around. With a pair of 14th-place finishes at Atlanta (Ga.) Motor Speedway and Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway in Kansas City, KS, along with a NCWTS career-best fifth-place finish at Kansas Speedway, Hayley is confident that his mile-and-a-half success will translate into a possible career-first NCWTS win at Texas Motor Speedway on Friday.

 

Sounding off – Cameron Hayley:

I think Texas is going to be a great place for me. It’s the first track coming up on the schedule that I have experience in a truck. All the tracks this year in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series are new to me, but Texas is the first one where I’ve raced at, and I feel like I have some experience. Plus, I have more experience at mile-and-a-half tracks now than I did the last time I was there, so hopefully I’ll  do well.”
