It was a clash of the titans on Saturday at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, NC, as Burt Myers tussled with Tim Brown for victory in the Hayes Jewelers 200 for the Brad’s Golf Cars Modified Series.

Myers, a resident of Walnut Cove, qualified on the pole with Rural Hall’s Tim Brown starting on the outside front row. Myers shot out into the lead as the green flag waved and held on for 35 laps and two double-file restarts.

But on the third double-file restart, Brown slammed the gas and powered ahead of Myers to steal away the lead heading into turn one. Brown then turned his efforts towards nursing his tires – but Myers had other ideas.

The No. 1 car of Myers began delivering strong taps to the rear of Brown, even attempting to pass by Brown on the outside.

“I hated to drive Tim as rough as I did, but he jumped me and he knew it,” said Myers. “I wanted my spot back.”

Keeping his eye on the long game, Brown relinquished the lead to Myers.

“I basically just wanted to run him hard and use his stuff up – I didn’t want to lead the race,” said Brown. “He came there knocking me sideways and wanting to run hard, so I just let him go.”

Brown then bided his time while Jason Myers of Walnut Cove moved up to take on brother Burt for the lead. For nearly 100 laps, the Myers brothers held the front two positions until Brown slipped past Jason to reclaim second.

It was then that Brown decided to turn on the heat, ramping up the pressure on Myers bit by bit. For the final 10 laps, Brown was hammering the rear bumper of Burt Myers, nearly turning him sideways on occasion as the crowd rose to their feet. But Myers was able to hold on and take the checkered.

“I think I had the better car there. We saved our stuff for the very end,” said Brown. “I probably could’ve wrecked him but I don’t race that way. It’s just heartbreaking. I gave it everything I had there.”

Myers realized that he was going to have his work cut out for him while maintaining the lead.

“I knew his car was better mine, and I knew I better play some defense if I was going to hold him off,” said Myers about protecting his spot from Brown. “I don’t know if I could’ve gone another five laps – I’m glad we didn’t have to find out.”

Brown ended up finishing second, with Jason Myers taking fourth and John Smith of Mount Airy coming in fourth.

In the Double D Construction Services Sportsman Series, Derek Stoltz of Walkertown battled his way forward to take the checkered. Stoltz stole the lead away from Ryan Robertson of Winston-Salem during the first double-file restart and then defended his lead against an outside row challenge from Mack Little of Kernersville and repeated attempts from Ryan Robertson to reclaim the lead. Taylor Branch of Lewisville finished second, with Robertson coming in third.

David Sumner brought home the win in a wild race for the Q104.1 New Country Street Stock Series. Brian Wall of Winston-Salem and K.J. Stimpson of Lewisville finished second and third.

The twin 15-lappers for the Traffic Control Safety Services Stadium Stock Series were postponed until next week due to curfew.

Bowman Gray Stadium returns to action on Saturday, May 3. For more information, visit bowmangrayracing.com.
