The Driver's Thoughts on Darlington Raceway "I love Darlington, it's a great track, but you either love it or hate it. The groove is so narrow that you literally run right up against the wall. The pavement is really worn out, so the tires drop off fast. You start off fast then you are a second or two seconds slower by the end of the run. Because we run so close to the wall is why many cars get the famous 'Darlington Stripe' on the side."
-- Matt Kenseth (August 2002)
The Crew Chief's Thoughts on Darlington Raceway "Darlington is usually a hard track on drivers, but Matt seems to like it and does well there."
-- Robbie Reiser, Crew Chief (March 2002)
The Spotter's Thoughts on Darlington Raceway "The sweeping turns give both the driver and the spotter a better chance to react." (August 2002)
"Darlington is a relatively easy track to spot. The potters perch is up high and you've got a great view of the track." (September 2002)
-- Mike Calinoff, Spotter
