Next Nascar Stop: Atlanta

HAMPTON, Ga. (Feb. 22, 2016) – After the closest finish in Daytona 500 history – Denny Hamlin winning by a 0.010-second margin over Martin Truex, Jr. – the  2016 NASCAR season shifts 400 miles north, to Atlanta Motor Speedway, a track that has seen its own share of photo finishes over the years.  Aside from yesterday’s thrilling final lap, Atlanta Motor Speedway is unlike Daytona International Speedway in nearly every other facet. The track is a mile shorter, the surface is aged and abrasive, and cars’ speeds and performance aren’t reined in by restrictor plates. Additionally, the much-anticipated low-downforce aerodynamic package being used in the Sprint Cup Series in 2016 will debut at Atlanta this weekend.
