This is a larger track, so I'd imagine you're correct.

LOL, yeah, I was talking about the younger one.

I was right on the pic of the test car.

(ON THE RETURN OF THE NO. 5 ALL-STAR RACING CHEVROLET.): “It’s really exciting for me because that car got it all started. This was totally Dale Jr.’s idea. He loves the older stuff — the history — and he wanted to paint it up like our first car with All-Star Racing and City Chevrolet on it. It brings back some old memories, and I’m just honored that he wanted to do it. I can’t wait to see that car on the track. His dad (Dale Earnhardt Sr.) was one of the guys we talked to about driving the car, so it’ll be pretty special to see the Earnhardt name on the roof.”

HENDRICK: (ON THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION AT THE ATLANTA TEST.) “It’s going to be really important. The sooner we can get Dale Jr. in one of our cars to see how it rides, how it drives, the power of the motor — all of that is critical. Tony Eury Jr. and the engineers, they’ve been working together already, but getting on the track and having everyone understand what Dale Jr. wants is important. Same with Alan (Gustafson) and Casey (Mears). They’ll be working to build that chemistry on the radio and learning to make adjustments. When they (the Nos. 5 and 25 teams) get back, they’ll be able to share all that information with the other teams (the Nos. 24 and 48). This is an important test for the No. 5 and the new No. 88, getting a jump on next year. For the organization, it’s about learning as much as we can about the Impala SS on an intermediate track.”
