Jamie McMurray To Make SMART Modified Tour Debut at Franklin County
Jamie McMurray has an itch to scratch, and it’s not the typical reason a retired racer wants to return to the seat. On Friday May 29, McMurray, the 2010 Daytona 500 Champion, will make his debut in a tour-type Modified, racing in the Kenny Minter Classic SMART Modified Tour event at Virginia’s Franklin County Speedway. The former NASCAR star will drive the Sadler-Stanley Racing no.16VA ride that has been dubbed “The All-Star car,” with several different competitors at the wheel throughout the season. He will do so racing as teammates with two-time-defending SMART Tour Champion Luke Baldwin in the 7VA. The mount is co-owned by former NASCAR racer Hermie Sadler and Virginia Senator Bill Stanley.
