Whynot Motorsports Park,
Pure Stock Division:

BryantReynolds: Ultimate Car Care #4 Chevy

If you had the impression that the best racing depends on how fast they are going? You must not have seen the  feature show that the Pure Stock Division put on for us Saturday night at Whynot Motorsports Park.

With only 5 cars competing in the feature, we expected it to be anybody's race to win, Bryant Reynolds, the "Dirt Track Cowboy",driving the #4 McCalls Lawn Service Chevy, was forced to sit out the Heat Race because he noticed fluid coming from his transmission after hot laps. After missing the heat, Reynolds was forced to start in the rear.

 "Well I knew after hot laps, we (McCalls Lawn Service Chevy) knew we had a busted transmission. So, we laid out of the heat expecting to just cruise around until we broke in the feature", said Reynolds after his win Saturday Night. "We got out there, and next thing ya know, that joker just went", expained Bryant.

Bryant did not just take off in the first part of the race. The Orange Mopar car, #22 Mark Hollinghead, from Pulaski Ms, held the lead for almost half of the race getting almost a half a straightaway on the competition. A late caution bunched the field back up after a spin by the #14w driven by Jay Walker in turn 3.

On the next restart Reynolds had worked his way up to 2nd with #40, David Franklin, from Toomsuba Ms on his outside. The Orange Mopar ahd to very eager locals behind him and when he bobbled up in turn 2, Franklin & Reynolds were there to take advantage. Reynolds actually traded a little paint with his good friend, David Franklin who was on the low side coming out of 2.

After a quick door to door pass with the #40 car, 2nd year driver Bryant Reynolds was able to seal the deal as he brought home the win in the first race of the season at whynotmotorsportspark.com.

David Franklin, 2010 Mini Stock Champion, finished 2nd and Mark Hollinghead finished 3rd in the money.

Bryant Reynolds was a rookie last year and did very well for his first season as a driver, but unfortuanately, he finished 2nd in the PURE STOCK season points. This hot start on the season may be an early favorite to be the 2013 Pure Stock Points Champion.
