This high banked oval which boasts speeds of 153mph in the corners is one of Nascar's fastest tracks.
The race weekend started off with the mandatory 10 lap practise session. I was just inside the top 5, placing 3rd with a time of 41.442.
Qualifying next and the question was could I get further up the grid? The answer was no as I could only manage 6th.
The race turned out to be something special for me - no black flags. I ran in the top 3 all race, mostly either 1st or second but had the misfortune to drop to third two laps from the finish. I was happy enough with an uneventful race and a podium finish.
My best time of the race was 41.448 not quite my fastest of the race weekend.
I was up to 5th in the standings.
