Mayfield tests at Nashville UPDATE: #19-Jeremy Mayfield tested at Nashville Superspeedway on Tuesday and Wednesday and had this to say: “I think it’s a great track, it’s very quick, tons of grip and I plan to spread the word to other drivers. I think our Dodge team has learned a great deal testing here on this fantastic concrete track that we’ll use the rest of the season. I definitely plan to return here to test. The facility is tops, the staff are some of the friendliest and best around anywhere. I think Nashville could do super with some kind of Cup event for sure. When I tell all the other Cup drivers how incredibly smooth this track is, they’ll want to come and test here too I think. It’s one of the smoothest, not slick, that I’ve ever tested on, it’s truly a great place.”(6-6-2002) UPDATE: Former Fairgrounds Speedway driver Jer-emy Mayfield practiced a Dodge R&D (research and development) Winston Cup car yesterday at Nashville Superspeedway. ”This is my first look at the track and I’m really impressed,” Mayfield said. ”It’s a good smooth racing surface and the rest of the facility looks great.” Mayfield, a teammate of Nashville’s Casey Atwood and veteran Bill Elliott with Evernham Motorsports, said all three teams ”are making good progress and we all get along great. There’s no political stuff between any of the teams.”(Tennessean)(6-6-2002)
