TRUMANN, Ark. (July 24) - This weekend Beard Motorsports and driver, Kyle Beard, will head to the Show-Me state for a pair of events with his #86 GRT By Frye/Samuels Performance Racing Engine Super Late Model.
The weekend will get underway on Saturday night at Springfield Raceway in Springfield, Missouri with a $3,000 to win/$500 to win event that will be sanctioned by the O'Reilly MARS & Allstate DLRA Super Late Models. This will mark Kyle's first visit to the southwest Missouri ¼ mile oval. For more information please visit www.SpringfieldRaceway.com or www.DLRA.net .
On Sunday, the team will travel to Monett Speedway in Monett, Missouri for a $2,000 to win/$450 to start program that will feature a clash between the O'Reilly MSRA and Allstate DLRA Super Late Models. Kyle has two wins on the season with the O'Reilly MSRA and is currently 5th in the tour's point standings. For more information on the event, please visit www.MonettSpeedway.net or www.MSRADirt.com .
Last weekend Kyle entered the MSRA/DLRA Challenge Events at Batesville Motor Speedway in Locust Grove, Arkansas. On Friday night, with 33 Super Late Models on hand, Beard powered his way to his heat race win and earned the 5th starting position for the feature event. In the main event, Kyle was running in the 5th position, when he got crossed up in lapped traffic causing him to spin. He went to the tail of the field and charged back to a solid 8th place finish.
Saturday night was a tough night for Kyle at Batesville Motor Speedway in Locust Grove, Arkansas in night #2 of the MSRA/DLRA Challenge. Beard would not qualify for the feature event via heat action for the 34 car field, and was forced to run one of the twin b-mains. However, mechanical woes in the b-main would force him pitside. He was able to utilize an O'Reilly MSRA tour provisional for the 35 lap feature events, but mechanical woes would once again rear their ugly head early in the event, relegating him to a 21st place finish.
Kyle Beard would like to thank his sponsors including KB Transport, Gary Beard Trucking, Samuel's Performance Engines, Engines Inc., Mean Street Motors, Inc., Extreme Graphix (Jonesboro, AR), Bill Frye Motorsports, and MSRMafia.com Marketing Services.
