NASCAR Next’s McReynolds Getting Adjusted With BMR
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Perfect fits are hard to come by, but Brandon McReynolds and Bill McAnally Racing may be just that.
At just 22 years of age, McReynolds has experience beyond his years. The Mooresville, N.C., driver grew up around the sport at its highest levels with his father, Larry McReynolds, a veteran NASCAR Sprint Cup Series crew chief and now television analyst with FOX Sports on its NASCAR coverage. The younger McReynolds also already has experience in four different NASCAR series – NASCAR Nationwide Series, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, NASCAR K&N Pro Series East and NASCAR K&N Pro Series West.
This season, the K&N Pro Series West is home for McReynolds in the championship-winning stable at BMR.
“It’s a little weird having a race shop so far away from home, but everyone at BMR has made me feel welcome and right at home,” said McReynolds. “I’ve spent a lot of time in California here recently getting ready for this next stretch of races.”
McReynolds enters that race as a member of the 2014-15 NASCAR Next class that was introduced on April 25 in Richmond, Va. The program spotlights the sport’s emerging young stars and the well-spoken McReynolds is a good fit there, as well.
“It’s an honor to be selected for NASCAR Next,” he said. ‘I’m really looking forward to backing that up with a great season.”
