I was looking back at some of the older races from the Blue Gray and the other big races at Cherokee and came across some names that I haven't heard in a while and was wondering what happened to them. Royce Bray, Wesley Hood are to of the names that have me wondering where they are now
Bodine massengil and Brent Robinson are a couple guys that I wondered what happened to?
Bodine massengil looks like he is racing go carts with his son and Brent Robinson is racing at Dixieland speedway https://theweeklyracer.com/tag/brent-robinson/
Thanks cowboy
Remember when Bodine wore out his welcome at 311 one night,drug him out of the racetrack on his roof!
Yes, towed the car from turn 3 out the gate to the edge of the property upside down! Personally thought he had it coming, we rode around under caution for two laps, he comes out of the pits and runs down Noel Tucker' hits him and both cars flip (still under caution).... They told him not to go back onto the track if he was going to do something stupid, he did it anyway.....
his cars always looked nice when he pulled in........leaving, not so much.
I’ve seen Brent’s name in crate results in and around Virginia the last couple years.Quote:

He races in the blue ridge outlaw class. Idk if its weekly or just hit and miss but hes still activeQuote:

He wins a lot again these days in that blue ridge series.....good to see.

Royce Bray was running local tracks in the NE Ga area last year (Toccoa, Hartwell, Lavonia). Seen him win a couple 602 Late Model features 1st hand at Lavonia. Also heard about him in the Grifco Racing car this year.
