Wade Day Seeks Redemption at Concord Motorsport Park
USAR Pro Cup heads to North Carolina.
Bristol, TN, April 25, 2008 --(PR.com)-- During his 2007 Hooters Pro Cup rookie season, Wade Day and the Highlands Motorsports team had high expectations entering the race at Concord Motorsport Park. After all, Day had finished second in the Firecracker 150 Super Late Model event there the year before. After a disappointing qualifying run of 20th, Day surged to the front of the pack to lead 38 laps. “We didn’t qualify well there last year, but the car was great during the race,” Day said. A great day was ruined when a problem in the pits cost the team several laps, leading to a 26th place finish. Day looks to change his Concord luck during the Racing Electronics 250 on April 26th.
“Concord is not one of my best tracks,” said Day from his Bristol, Tenn., race shop, “but we have a good set up and we will be testing there this week to get ready for Saturday. Concord is a short track with a big track feel. It is very fast. The key to a good finish is to stay out of trouble. You need a lot of give and take at a track like Concord – lots of give.”
