In NASCAR, the name Robert Yates has always been synonymous with winning and horsepower, especially on superspeedways. Stephen Leicht, driver of the No. 90 CitiFinancial Ford Fusion, is confident that this weekend will be no exception for Saturday’s running of the NASCAR Busch Series Aaron’s 312. Leicht will be making his 32nd NASCAR Busch Series start and second at Talladega.
"I know that Robert Yates horsepower is going to be a huge advantage for me this weekend. If I can just keep my head up and stay out of trouble we should get the CitiFinancial Ford a great finish,” Leicht said. The No. 90 CitiFinancial Ford will feature an in-car camera for this weekend’s Aaron’s 312. The 117-lap event will get the green flag at 3 p.m. EST live on ABC.
"Yates Horsepower" are the two most overrated words in NASCAR. When was the last time they had a noticeable horsepower advantage over the rest of the field?
