CAUDILL WINS UARA-STARS STOCK CAR RACE AT TRI-COUNTY

CONCORD, N.C. (May 25, 2009) – Jamey Caudill worked his way through the frontrunners, took the lead late in the race, and won the UARA-STARS race at Tri-County Speedway.

Caudill, a veteran of the late model stock car touring circuit, grabbed the lead on lap 146 and held on for the last four laps to secure the win.

Goodyear is the exclusive tire provider for the UARA-STARS series. The series is among the most popular of its kind in the southeastern United States and the race at Tri-County attracted a field of 28 starters.

Caudill passed Brandon McReynolds on the 143rd trip around the 4/10-mile oval to take second place, then got by Paddy Rodenbeck to take the lead. Rodenbeck, who started on the pole, had led most of the race.

Richard Boswell II eventually slipped by McReynolds and finished second. McReynolds was third, followed by Garrett Campbell and Coleman Pressley.

The race ended a busy day for McReynolds. The son of Larry McReynolds, Brandon attended his high school graduation earlier in the day, then hustled to the track to continue his racing matriculation.
