McCall Makes Tri-County "HIS"

By Corey Latham and Wink Bodenhamer

Hendersonville, North Carolina (August 30, 2008) -   As the UARA STARS touring series pulled into Tri-County Speedway Friday night, it was business as usual. Except everybody knew one thing in the back of their head, Matt McCall was gonna be there, and he was gonna be fast. Matt, along with another former series champion Lee Tissot and quite a few "outsiders" came to the track to try their best against the best Late-Model racers in the country. They did fine, but in the end, it was the 2005 UARA champion McCall taking the win after an action packed event.

Clay Greenfield had come to the season ending race for Tri-County's weekly racing a week before, to try and get a feel of the track. It worked wonders as Greenfield won the Sunoco Pole award with a fast time of 16.271. It was impressive for Greenfield not just that it was his first career pole, but being able to beat McCall who had set the track record a week earlier. McCall was able to secure the KLB Race Cars and Parts outside pole award. He was followed by Lee Tissot, Jamey Caudill and most recent race winner at Franklin County, Brandon McReynolds.
