Shirley Roars Back to Clarksville For SRRS Win

By Connie Putnam

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - March 27. Brian Shirley must have liked the way things went for him two weeks ago when his debut at Clarksville Speedway yielded a rim-riding jaunt and a win within view as he joined the MARS tour at the north central Tennessee track.

On Saturday, the alphabet was different as the facility hosted the PPM Race Products sponsored Southern Regional Racing Series (SRRS), but the Chatham, Illinois hotshoe seemed more focused on conquering that track than earning points on anyone's series.  Shirley won the event after a third row inside start in the 40 lap feature event that paid $3,000.
