NASCAR heads to the American East Coast this weekend to kick off the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500. Drivers and teams will go from the harsh conditions of the Arizona desert to the newly reprofiled track in Hampton, Georgia for a chance to visit Victory Lane.

The changes were primarily dictated by feedback received from tire testing, while also looking to improve the overall safety of the 28-degree banked oval. These changes bring several unknowns for teams and drivers alike, which will spice things up over the weekend.

Dubbed the most patriotic race on the calendar due to title sponsor Folds of Honor, Atlanta has the potential to be an instant fan favorite. Folds of Honor is a non-profit organization that helps families of fallen and disabled ex-service personnel from the American Armed Forces.
