HAMPTON, Ga. – Ty Dillon's work load tripled this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Dillon is the substitute driver for injured Tony Stewart for Sunday's Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 Sprint Cup race. That means he will drive 500 miles in addition to the 250 he'll run in Saturday's Xfinity Series race.

But to Dillon, the opportunity to race in the No. 14 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet more than makes up for the extra work.
"It's a huge weekend," Dillon told media members on Friday.
