Mike Marlar Concludes 2011 with Second Place Finish in Turkey 100

by Ben Shelton
Winfield, Tennessee (11/28/11) – Mike Marlar entered his final event of the 2011 season over the weekend as he powered his #5 Bryson Motorsports/Rocket Crate Late Model to a second place finish in the 11th Annual Turkey 100.

The team traveled to Swainsboro Raceway (Swainsboro, Georgia) for the 11th Annual $20,000-to-win, Turkey 100 as Mike took part in a Crate Late Model event for the second straight week. Sixty-one entries were on hand for the program, and on Friday night he would finish fourth in his heat race, but with only the top two cars moving on to the feature, he was forced to run a b-main on Saturday evening. Saturday's program would see him win a b-main to lock into the fifteenth starting spot for the feature event, which was shortened to 50 laps. He would methodically work his way through the pack in the main event, and with ten laps remaining he moved into the second position. Over the closing laps he would apply heavy pressure to William Thomas for the lead, but was unable to make the pass. When the checkered flag flew Mike was credited with a strong, second place finish behind race winner, Thomas.

It was a great way for Mike to conclude his 2011 season, and he would like to thank all of his sponsors and fans, who have shown him great support this year! The team is already preparing for 2012 so stay tuned to www.MikeMarlar.net for the latest team news and schedule information.
