Has the excitement and buzz surrounding the Sonoma raceway coupled with his Debut made Waters nervous? What is his take on his first adventure with NASCAR?

Cam Waters’ perspective on his Cup Series debut

Waters is enthusiastic about his NASCAR Cup Series debut, acknowledging the challenges ahead. “For me, it’s a bit of a bucket list (item) to be honest,“, Waters said this week at NASCAR’s Production Facility in Concord, N.C. He added, “I get to come over and do a Cup race – it’s pretty awesome. To be able to do it, you know, on a road course and in a car that kind of makes a little bit more sense to me is going to be pretty special as well. I think I’ve got no idea how it’s to go but I just want to enjoy the week“​​.

He elaborated on the appeal of stepping out of his comfort zone, stating, “The other part was to be able to come over here and do a few oval races. That was kind of the Truck side and I absolutely had a ball. It appeals just to kind of step out my comfort zone and do a few more races on the side and complement my racing back home“​​.

At Sonoma, Waters will face formidable competitors. The list includes Martin Truex Jr. and Chase Elliott. With +225 odds, Elliott, a road course specialist, is the favorite for the race. At the same time, Truex, a four-time winner at Sonoma, is also looking to break his drought with a win. As a result, Waters must draw on his Supercar experience to navigate the challenging Sonoma track and compete against these seasoned drivers.
