Earnhardt to make Atlanta debut

Atlanta Motor Speedway is one of the fastest tracks on the Nationwide Series schedule.

Greg Biffle owns the Nationwide qualifying record – a very brisk 192.300 miles per hour – at AMS.

Jeffrey Earnhardt, running the full Nationwide schedule for the first time this season, will get his first look at the fast race course in Saturday night’s Great Clips 300.

“It’s a fast place, one that gets your attention, I’m sure,” said Earnhardt, who will drive the JD Motorsports with Gary Keller No. 4 Chevrolet. “I’m looking forward to getting out there. Our cars usually do pretty well at that sort of track.”

Earnhardt is coming off his best performance of the season – a 12th-place finish last weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway.
