Quotes:
Scott Wimmer on Gateway International Raceway:
“Gateway is a tricky little track. It has really long straight-aways and very tight corners, but the part that makes it so unique is the two ends are completely different. Turns one and two are very tight, while turns three and four are more sweeping. It takes a lot, especially a strong motor, to get through the corners. As long as the straight-aways are, the car that comes off the corner best will be the one to beat. While the horsepower is needed to get off the corner, you still need great handling to get through the center well."
