Hamlin Conversation \u2013 Talladega<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you expect going to Talladega this weekend?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m optimistic about going there. I felt like we had a strong car in Daytona, but we got caught in a wreck and never really got to show it. As a manufacturer, the Toyotas were able to work pretty well together to get to the front. Talladega is always a numbers game when it comes to the manufacturers, so it\u2019s going to be important that we\u2019re able to get all the Toyotas together and hopefully put ourselves in a good position.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
