Bub McCool Bests Battle of the States Foes

by Ben Shelton
VICKSBURG, MS (March 29) – There was no off-season rust for Bub McCool to worry about as he claimed a convincing victory in his first event of 2016. The $2,500 triumph came on Saturday evening aboard the McCool Logging #57J RBT Motorsports/Club 29 Race Car/Jay Dickens Racing Engine Super Late Model in the 3rd Annual Battle of the States at Whynot Motorsports Park.

Making his 2016 season debut, Bub McCool traveled to Whynot Motorsports Park (Meridian, Mississippi) on Saturday night for the Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series (MSCCS) season-opener. Drawing twenty-four Super Late Models for the 3rd Annual Battle of the States, McCool posted the fastest time in qualifying. After finishing 2nd in the dash, Bub earned a 2nd place starting position for the $2,000-to-win A-Main.

Jumping out to an early lead in the finale, McCool overcame a mid-race battle for the top spot with Brian Rickman. He would stretch his lead to almost half a track and seemed to have the feature comfortably wrapped up until a late-race caution erased his lead. Holding off Jack Sullivan, Bub McCool went on to pick up his first victory of the season with Sullivan, Rick Rickman, Neil Baggett, and Brian Rickman rounding out the top five.

“We’ve been chomping at the bit to get our season started but the weather has been rough everywhere that we’ve tried to race,” said the defending MSCCS champion. “I want to thank Randy Thompson and this entire team for giving me a flawless, race car tonight.”
