MARTINSVILLE, VA
– September 28, 2008 - It was said that
somebody would beat Scites’ record set
last year and they did, it was Scites

100 cars went out to qualify for the
Bailey’s 300, Davin Scites not only won
the pole but set a new track record
again at Martinsville.
Scites set a new track
record of a 20.316 second pole. This is

Radford, VA (August 17, 2008)
- Davin Scites led every lap of the
Toyota/ATK 150 for his most
dominating performance of the year

running great, it was a great car
for Saturdays race.
"We only had one caution so you had
to hit all your marks and not make
any mistakes. It was a great race."
Scites seemed to run error-free in a
race that featured only one caution.
"I tried to," he said. "I thought,
'Man, don't spin out."

Davin Scites Comes Back to Win the
Second 75 Lap Race
Radford,
Va. (July 26, 2008) - A solid
qualifying effort did not translate
into a good run in the first race of
the A-1 Heating and Cooling/Star
Country Twin 75's at Motor Mile
Speedway in Radford, Va. for Davin
Scites on Saturday. However, changes
made to the car in between features
led the No. 06 Champion Chevrolet to
Victory Lane.
From the
drop of the green flag, the No. 06
Champion Chevrolet began to drop
back through the field and not even
multiple pit stops could rectify the
problems that Scites experienced
with the car. Between the two
races, however, Scites and his crew
were able to make wholesale changes
to the car in time for the second
event. The changes helped immensely
as Scites took little time catching
up to the leaders. He claimed the
top spot and remained there for the
duration of the race.
"Saturday was twin 75's and it
started with a bang early! We had a
blow out on the car hauler on the
way their, denting the side of the
Champion Chevrolet racecar. After
some repairs when we got to the
track, we were ready to practice.
The car felt good in the two short
practices and we went out twenty
fifth to qualify posting the second
fast time. After post qualifying
tech the #1 qualifying car failed
tech so we started third in the
first race and on the pole for the
second race. The start for the first
race I knew we were in trouble, the
car was terrible all over the race
track falling back to eight we
decided to make a pit stop to try to
make it better. Three pit stops
later we could not get it fixed
during the stops and ended up 20th.
The second race we changed
everything on the car taking a big
chance. The car was great from the
start, on the first corner the car
got loose coming off the corner and
the forty seven car took the lead
but it did not take long and we took
the lead and led the rest of the
race” Scites commented.
"We
could get out to a six-car-length
lead on the second place car during
long runs," Scites said. "I just had
a great race car in the second
feature. It's definitely something
we can build on."
Scites
will return to Motor Mile Speedway
this weekend for the Coca-Cola LMSC
Twin 75's Whelen Night as the
speedway continues to make up for
events that were rained out earlier
in the year.

Davin
Finished 2nd in the Star Country 150
and is 2nd in Points
Just like the week
before we qualified second.
There
was 33 cars this weekend and
we knew we had do be just right with
our Champion Chevy. We went out 30th
to qualify and turned a 16.022
putting us 3rd for the Star
Country 150. Before the race
,the 06 team launched some shirts
into the stands. The green flag
dropped and we got stuck on the
outside for a couple of laps.
We shuffled back to 5th spot.
As the race continued there were
several cautions. We had made it up
to 3rd when a wreck happened just in
front of us and the second place car
got into a lapped car sending him
into the wall hard. The
speedway red flagged the race
cleaning up the wreck. When we went
back to green we had a great race
car and could get to the inside of
the leader in the corners but the
dodge engine was a little better on
the straight-aways then our Chevy
was. But another great run and
moved us 2nd into the points only 38
points behind the leader with 14
races to go. -

Scites starts the season
off with a Win at Motor Mile
RADFORD,
Va. (April 8, 2008) -The
No. 06 Champion team drove to Motor Mile
Speedway in the rain on Saturday for the
track's first race of the season. When
they arrived at the track, surprisingly
it was not raining.
"During
practice I knew we had a good race car,
but had no idea what it would do when it
came time for qualifying," Scites said.
The car
didn't let him down as he qualified
fifth out of the 29 cars in the field.
"I knew that we would be close enough to
get to the front during the 150 laps,"
Scites said. "Motor Mile Speedway ran
all the races on Saturday except for
ours. We made it through the day,
but the rain finally came and they lost
the track."
Track officials opted to postpone the
race to the following afternoon, and
from the drop of the green flag the
Champion Chevy was strong. Scites
worked his way into second place with 40
laps to go.
