Ready For The Monster Mile

High Banks, Extreme Speeds and Danger Around Every Corner. That pretty much sums up Dover International Raceway! But as has been the case all year long, the Poynt.com team with Timmy Hill at the wheel looks forward to the challenge and heads into this tricky track with high expectations and excitement.

The Car

The #41 Poynt.com team will roll out the same car that ran consistant top 5 speeds at Darlington a month ago. This car is specifically designed for high bank race tracks where speeds are excessive and grip is at a premium. George Church, crew chief for the 41 car has made some changes to the car since its impressive run at Darlington to increase front end performance and keep the rubber on the road!

Timmy Hill

Although last weeks race at Charlotte Motor Speedway felt like a home track for Timmy and the crew because of its proximity to their shop, Dover really is more of a home track to Timmy and his Northeastern based family. “Dover is a cool track for me for a number of reasons. First, I grew up close to the track and remember watching Dover a lot. Secondly, I really like tough and challenging tracks like Dover. I love the combination of the high banks and speeds that Dover brings combined with the challenge of tires that wear out and a groove that will be all of the way from the apron to the safer barrier. Look for the #41 Poynt.com car to be super strong this weekend and continue our streak of top 20 finishes on the lead lap!”, stated Timmy Hill.

Charlotte Television Ratings

NASCAR and their Nationwide Series continue to provide very impressive television ratings not only with cable but also network ranking.

Saturday's NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Charlotte was on ABC, so the final ratings will not be available until Friday. However, the telecast earned a 1.6 overnight rating, up from last year's 1.4 overnight. Last year's Charlotte race had a 1.6 final rating, which was up 23 percent from the previous year's 1.3.(ESPN)(5-30-2012)
