Christopher Bell / No. 20 Rheem Toyota Supra Preview NASCAR Xfinity Series 250 at Atlanta Motor Speedway
Atlanta Bound: Christopher Bell heads to his favorite track this weekend, Atlanta Motor Speedway (AMS). Bell had a successful rookie season at the 1.5-mile track by qualifying on the pole, leading 12 laps and finishing third. His Xfinity success comes on the heels of two prior starts in the NASCAR Gander Outdoor Truck Series (NGOTS) at AMS.
I love Atlanta, it’s actually my favorite race track on the schedule. I’ve been there three times and I think I’ve led laps all three times, so it’s a place that’s been really good to me.

Christopher Bell: “I love Atlanta, it’s actually my favorite race track on the schedule. I’ve been there three times and I think I’ve led laps all three times, so it’s a place that’s been really good to me. It’s really slick and very line sensitive. When running the bottom it’s very important to get all the way to the yellow line, the top is pretty good in one and two, so it’s a really fun race track. We were competitive last year and hopefully we can be just a little better this year.”
