Ty Dillon tested NASCAR’s new rules package at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in January.<\/p>\n
With a strong closing to the past weekends race at Atlanta, Dillon and the No. 13 GEICO Camaro team is looking forward to the first of three races out west.<\/p>\n
What are your expectations as NASCAR heads to Las Vegas with the new rules package?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI think that we\u2019re definitely going to see a difference in the racing at Las Vegas with this new package. Restarts and the first 10-15 laps are going to be wild. You\u2019re going to see a lot of three-wide racing and a lot of aggressive moves. Drivers know that will be the window of time to make up a whole lot of ground. That\u2019s not to say that you won\u2019t be able to gain anything on a long run because handling will still come into play. We are going to get 30 or 40 laps into a run and the leader will not have lapped the 18th-place car by that point. All of those guys are still going to be very much in contention throughout a run, which will make it intense when someone in the middle of the field bobbles or makes a mistake. It\u2019s going to be tough for him not to lose five spots. This package is really going to showcase the talent and presence of a driver. It will really suit aggressive drivers like myself. I think that this is a big opportunity for our GEICO Camaro ZL1 team, and we\u2019re ready to take it head on.\u201d<\/p>\n The Las Vegas 400 will be run on Sunday, March 3. The race will air live at 3:30 p.m. ET on FOX, Performance Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ty Dillon tested NASCAR’s new rules package at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in January.
