Juan Pablo Montoya's long-awaited stock car debut took place on Monday, with the Colombian getting seat time in an ARCA machine at Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama.
"It was like, 'Oh my God!'" Montoya exclaimed. "I came out of the pits, I went into Three and Four, started listing and said, 'Ah, let's just try it' and I just went full throttle and went through it and went into One pretty fast. They told me [the track is] flat easy, so to try it. I just went for it.
"It went through it and it felt pretty quick, to be honest. The car really moves
Montoya posted a fastest lap of 186.667mph, good enough for sixth-best in the 31-car ARCA field testing at 'Dega.
"It's going to be difficult and it's going to be a challenge, but if you work at it and do the right steps, then it's going to be fine.
