***CCRA 2021 Sponsor Spotlight***

This week's sponsor spotlight will be a tad bit different as it isn't any particular business but instead a Father/Son racing team that participates in our CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association races. Let me introduce you to "The McLawhorn's". Mr. Ed & son Avery contacted me at the beginning of the year & wanted to do some sort of sponsorship for the upcoming CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association racing season & left it up to Tabitha & Leigh Anne to come up with a unique award. After a bit of brainstorming, we decided to give a "Hard Luck Award" on behalf of The McLawhorn Team. This award is decided at the end of each race based on which racer had the worst luck whether it be in route to the track or on that particular race day. The person chosen receives $25 for his/her misfortunes. Day #1 of KDS Motorsports, Mr. Roger Jarman was the recipient of this award & on Day #2 was James "Cooter" Williamson.

The McLawhorn family has been involved in class racing since 1965. Mr. Ed's father, Ed Sr, ran Junior Stockers and Super Stock. Mr. Ed passed the passion of drag racing down to his son Avery as well. The past couple of years, these 2 have been sharing driving duties in Ed's Chevy II wagon but this year will be the first year for them to be a 2 car team. Avery debuted his Chevy II at our first race race at Kinston but had some new car blues & was unable to compete. He is thrashing hard to get it ready for race #3 & #4 at Farmington Dragway on May 1st & 2nd.

Be sure when you see one of these guys at the track, that you tell them a simple "thank you" for their sponsorship for the 2021 CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association racing season.

If you aren't entered in the National at Atlanta next weekend, please make plans to attend our races at Farmington. And if you lose out early, you can always come to Farmington for Sunday. Hope everyone saw the points purse announcement last night & it's not too late to join!
