Tuesday marked the first day of a two-day Goodyear tire test at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the first test of the new year for select drivers in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
Taking part in the test are Brad Keselowski (Ford), Kurt Busch (Chevrolet), Jimmie Johnson (Chevrolet) and Matt Kenseth (Toyota).
Even though the test is closed to the public and media, here’s a few posts from social media on Tuesday’s activities:
