| Garvin Pilots Crate
Late Model to Victory at PPMS! |
|
Sarver, PA (April 30, 2012)
John Garvin Jr. and Copperhead Racing have been quite busy
so far in 2012, entering 12 events already in the young 2012
racing season, and their schedule looks to get a bit more
hectic as the team has added a crate late model to their
stable in addition to the super late model for the rest of
the season. The decision to compete in the crate division as
well has already paid dividends as Garvin Jr., picked up his
first win of 2012 at Pittsburgh’s PA Motor Speedway in
Imperial, PA on Sunday, April 29 in his first crate start of
the season.
John coupled that win with a solid second place finish in
the super late model feature event after leading throughout
the event.

took an ugly turn when the team reached their final
destination of Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, FL.
Garvin Jr. kicked off speedweeks by setting 13th quickest
time out of the 56 total entries at the World of Outlaws
Late Model Series sanctioned ‘Winter Freeze’ at Screven
Motor Speedway on Friday, February 10.
From there John would finish a |

|
strong second place in his heat race behind Winfield, TN’s
Mike Marlar, transferring him into the $20,000 to-win main
event. After
starting eighth in the 60 lap feature, Garvin Jr. battled
his way to an impressive 14th place finish giving the team
some confidence heading into the ‘Bubba Army Winter
Nationals’ at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, FL.
