Severe Weather Delays Race On Saturday August 2, 2008 Pit Boss Motorsports and driver Rodney Brooks prepare for Southern Sizzler 125. Temperatures around 100 degrees in the area and approximately 150 degrees on the track the team worked hard to make sure that the car ran smoothly for their driver to prevent overheating, as that was a problem at a past race when temperatures at the track were the same. During practice the car was on the pace, but struggled with brake bias due to too much rear break. That being a major issue at Dillion Motorspeedway because of the tight turn radiuses. During qualifying sprits were lifted when driver Rodney Brooks turn the fastest lap of the day and qualifying in at 15. |

“Rodney prepares for Easter Bunny 150” On Saturday January, 28
2008, Rodney tested his Rolling Thunder Modified race car at Hickory
Motor Speedway. The testing session was in preparation for his first
career start in the Pro All Star Series, South. “I learned a lot as
the day went on, I found a really good line, and feel really
confident for the Easter Bunny 150” Rodney said. Rodney earned this great opportunity after a top five finish in the Mason Dixon Meltdown at the Concord Motor Speedway back in November. The twenty year old Maine native led the first forty five of fifty laps along with winning his heat race. It was then shortly after that race when Jim and Denise Gallison, owners of Auto Master (a mechanic shop based in Mooresville, NC) were at that race and noticed Rodney’s talent, shortly after they got in touch with Rodney, then met with him soon after that.
