Just like last year, after the race we received an overwhelming response for their rendition of the anthem and how much it means to our fans.â€
“The honor was all ours!” said Ernie Haase. “Ed Clark and the folks at the Atlanta Motor Speedway,
NASCAR and ESPN treat us all like kings. It was a special treat to get to sing for the drivers, families and crews during the chapel service and anytime we get to represent our country by singing the national anthem is a special time.”
