Matt Crafton looks to get back on track in his pursuit of the NCWTS
championship in the Toyota Tundra 200 at Nashville Superspeedway on Saturday.
Crafton finished 16th at ORP last week, yielding precious points in the series
standings. He hopes to regain some of the lost ground at Nashville.
"Whether you have a great finish or a night where things maybe don't go the way
you planned, you still have to approach the next race the same way," Crafton
said. "Last week wasn't what we wanted, obviously, but we didn't dwell on it.
You can't afford to let it distract you and take away your focus from the next
race. We were quick to put it behind us, and we're focused on Nashville. We
expect our Menards Chevy to be strong there."
In eight career starts at Nashville, Crafton has finished in the top-10 three
times. He seeks his first top-5 finish at the track on Saturday.
"I always look forward to racing at Nashville," Crafton said. "The fans are
great, the winner's trophy is really cool, and there's just lots of excitement.
The track is fast, and with the concrete surface, handling is important. You
have to be able to turn well thru the corners there. For some reason, we haven't
had the strong runs here that we've had at other tracks, but, hopefully, we can
turn that around a little bit on Saturday."
