\u201cI always enjoy coming to the Northeast,\u201d said Larson, driver of the No. 42 Chevrolet Camaro for Chip Ganassi Racing. \u201cThe fans are very passionate up in this area; they love their racing. It was fun getting to hit some golf balls and play some other games on the simulator, then coming down here to do what I really love doing, which is racing. Today was my first time on this track, and it was a lot faster than I thought it would be.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accompanying Larson were David McGrath, executive vice president and general manager of New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Marcus Smith, president and corporate executive officer of Speedway Motorsports Inc., and Jason Guyot, senior vice president of resort operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re in our 30th<\/sup> season of NASCAR racing at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and the second year of our partnership with the region\u2019s most popular destination resort,\u201d said McGrath. \u201cWith Speedway Motorsports Inc.\u2019s \u2018fans first\u2019 philosophy, we\u2019re constantly working to improve the fan experience at \u2018The Magic Mile,\u2019 and Foxwoods Resort Casino follows that same path by providing unique and exciting experiences for New Englanders every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
