LORIS HEZEMANS
"Before driving a NASCAR I thought it was a car that wouldn't brake, wouldn't go around the corners and wouldn't be fast on the straights, but when you actually drive a Euro NASCAR, you understand it is a very different kind of driving and the car is the exact opposite of what you thought. It’s a car you can really play around with. You can still drive with some oversteer: not all the laps will be perfect, but it’s challenging and very satisfying to drive and it’s really old-school, which is very nice. The atmosphere in the paddock is great and it's you as a driver, together with your team, to make a difference rather than being dependent on a manufacturer performing better or on the BOP, plus budget-wise you can have a lot of fun and career opportunities for an affordable price."
