Burt Myers is no stranger to winning races at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, as the third-generation driver is closing in on his seventh track championship.

However, it had been a long time since he celebrated in Victory Lane after a NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour race.

But that all changed Saturday night.

Myers took the top spot after leader Kyle Ebersole and Danny Bohn got together on a restart onl 161 and held off his brother Jason to win the Strutmasters.com 199 for his third win of the season and first tour win at the Stadium since 2007.

Myers qualified eighth and slowly made his way up through the field in the first half of the race until he was in the top three after the fifth of six caution flags was given to the field on lap 156.

Andy Seuss rebounded from being involved in a caution on lap 57 to finish third with Bobby Measmer, Jr. and Gary Putnam completing the top five.

Ebersole won his first Coors Light Pole Award and led the first 67 laps of the race before Bohn, who qualified third, jumped to the lead for the first time on lap 68. The duo exchanged the lead one more time before their incident on lap 161.

Bohn, who was going for his third straight win at Bowman Gray in this race, led 77 laps before his contact with Ebersole, who led a race-high 84 laps.

With the win, Myers continues his quest for a second tour championship with a 17-point lead over Andy Seuss (268-251) with George Brunnhoelzl III third at 243. Brunnhoelzl finished 14th after getting collected in an accident on a Lap 58 restart and was unable to continue the race.

The NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour returns to action on Wednesday, Aug. 17 in the Bush’s Beans 150 combination race with the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour at Bristol Motor Speedway.
