NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, Race No. 2 – Active Pest Control 200

While teams in all three NASCAR Series will run the same right-side tire code (D-4682) at Atlanta this week, those in the Camping World Truck Series will run a different left-side code than those in the Cup and Xfinity Series.

This right-side tire code is a multi-zone tread tire with an two-inch inboard compound designed for heat resistance and a 10-inch outboard compound to give more grip. This is the same combination of left- and right-side tires that Truck teams ran at Atlanta last season.

As on all NASCAR ovals greater than one mile in length, teams are required to run liners in all four tire positions at Atlanta while the air pressure in those inner liners should be 12-25 psi greater  than that of the outer tire.
