“We won the Snowbird Outlaw Nationals,” Kye Kelley Racing said in a Facebook post. “Just speechless man. We fought through the baddest 60-something Pro Mods on the planet with a steel body Third Gen Camaro! Jeff Pierce is a baaad man on that keyboard. Thanks so much to Wes Buck and Drag Illustrated (and) Bradenton Motorsports Park for a great facility.
“Thanks to all you guys out there for having our back and hying us online! It’s been electric out there. Thanks to my sponsors and supports for making it all possible. Longer post coming. I got a lot of people to thank but just wow.”
For the win, according to his crew, Kelley received a $50,000 check for the win.
