Ragan on Dover: ‘You’ve Got to Race the Racetrack All Day’

Ragan on Dover

“Dover is a fun track to drive. I really enjoy racing there. It’s physically demanding and mentally demanding. You’ve got to race the racetrack all day. In the first Dover race, we weren’t very good on the long runs. I remember being pretty happy with the car for 15 or 20 laps into a run. But once the track started to rubber up on the concrete surface, our car went downhill. We just need to improve on our long-run speed. Anything over 50 laps, we need to work on our balance a little bit and try to be a little closer.

“We’re coming off a good finish at Charlotte last weekend, and I think we can get another top-20 here at Dover. We tend to run pretty well at short tracks, and unless something crazy happens, this can be another good finish for us.”
