Lavender Third at Greenville-Pickens

South Boston is Next on April 3rd

Mooresville, NC (03/29/10) - Jody Lavender made his first start of the 2010 season at the Greenville-Pickens Speedway in the NASCAR K&N Filters series. After a poor qualifying, he started in the 20th position. But when all of the 150 laps had been completed, he had moved all the way up to 3rd.

"It wasn’t an easy race" Jody said after the race. "This series has at least 10 cars capable of winning every race. We were lucky and this JBR team never gave up. The car was good at the first of the race but got loose at the end. We’re happy with 3rd but I’ve finished in the top-5 so many times at this track, it sure would have been nice to have a win."

The race will be replayed on Thursday, April 1st at 6 pm on the Speed Channel.
Jody also said, "We’ll be at South Boston, Va. next week (April 3rd) but that’s the only other race we plan to run in this series this year. We’d like to run more but all the travel takes so much time away from my business, Custom Race Chassis, and my family. We will run some races closer to home in the PASS Series."
