TALLADEGA, Ala. -- Stacy Compton is 20th in the NASCAR Busch Series standings with $165,450 in earnings. Compton has two career starts in the NASCAR Busch Series at the 2.66-mile Talladega Superspeedway. His best finish was a second in 2002.
"A racetrack like Talladega suits some drivers, and it doesn't suit others. That's why you usually see the same people running well there every year. I like the place. I like to go fast. The key, of course, is missing the big wreck that always seems to knock about half the cars out. In 2002 we missed the big wreck and finished second. Last year we didn't miss the wreck."
Compton will be making his 77th career start in the NASCAR Busch Series circuit – all with ST Motorsports.
"Our car at Nashville was good enough to win. I think we're at a point where we can contend on a weekly basis. Robert (Pressley) and I are able to exchange a lot of good information, and Steve (Plattenberger) and Jeff (Chandler) are working hard to give both of us great race cars. It's only a matter of time before we both start winning races."
