Follow on Google News | Luis Martinez Jr. impressive in performance at The BullringPosition One Motorsports is a premier race team based in Southern California providing chassis, shop, and driver development services.
By: Derrick Shannon Martinez drove a chassis named Mcfly, one of the favorites in the Position One shop. The Mcfly car came to Position One in 2009 and is a Gen X Victory Circle Chassis formerly driven by David Mayhew. Other drivers that have driven Mcfly with success include Makena Bell, (K & N east driver) Sergio Pena, and the Metal Mulisha originator Brian Deegan. Martinez Jr. demonstrated not only why Mcfly is one of the best cars in the stable but also why he is one of the top young racing talents on the west coast. Martinez Jr. methodically worked his was through the field of stout Super Late Models showing patience as the race took a while to find its rhythm as several of the drivers up front could not keep their cars pointed in the right direction. Through each green flag run, Martinez Jr. moved steadily through the field and closed on the leaders by mid-way through the event. With the race only scheduled for 40-laps, Marteniz Jr. ran out of time and settle for a third place finish. "The car was really fast and we turned the day around with this finish," Martinez Jr. said. "This car is a lot of fun to drive and the crew did a fantastic job fixing the rocker arm so we could race." Jason Patison drove a team car sponsored by MAVTV, and while Patison was among the fastest cars on the track, several other drivers got into his #80 causing some chassis damage resulting in a 13th place finish. Position One Motorsports goals for 2012 will be to further develop their winning tradition and become the premier West Coast team for developing championship caliber drivers. The team currently has a fleet of three ultra-competitive Late Model cars and two equally competitive Super Late Model entries ready for competition.
