JAMES RIVER, NS (August 15, 2018) – NASCAR Pinty’s Series (NPS) officials released a revised entry list late Tuesday for Saturday’s Bumper to Bumper 300 showing North Carolina’s Brandon McReynolds as the driver of the No. 28 car as a teammate to Ontario’s D.J. Kennington, a two-time Bumper to Bumper 300 winner.

McReynolds, the son of Fox NASCAR TV analyst and former NASCAR Cup Series legendary crew chief Larry McReynolds, will make his NPS debut at Riverside on Saturday. Brandon McReynolds is an established racer in the United States with wins in the NASCAR K & N Pro Series and in the ARCA series and starts NASCAR’s Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series. It is ironic he will drive the No. 28 car in the Bumper to Bumper 300 as it is the number his father is perhaps most well-known for as crew chief for the late Davey Allison.

“I’m really thankful to D.J. (Kennington) for this opportunity,” said McReynolds from North Carolina on Wednesday morning. “He’s a good friend. I totally respect everything he’s done in racing in Canada and in the U.S. He’s a racer so it’s a thrill for me to be his teammate in my NASCAR Pinty’s Series debut. We’ve talked about doing this for a while and it just worked out that I can make it this weekend. I’m looking for a good run, a solid finish, and that we can go for the win.”

McReynolds will come to Nova Scotia from Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee where he will work with Gragson in Thursday’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at the very same track that Riverside is a scale model of (0.333-mile for Riverside vs 0.533-mile at Bristol).

Other changes on the revised entry list for the Bumper to Bumper 300 include Kerry Micks in the No. 02 car, driving for Mark Dilley, the inaugural winner of the Bumper to Bumper 300 who was previously announced as the driver.

With 18 drivers from throughout Canada and the United States expected to enter the Bumper to Bumper 300, the field is stacked with talent including three series champions (Kennington, Andrew Ranger, L.P. Dumoulin) and 10 series race winners (Micks, Cole Powell, Kennington, Alex Tagliani, Donald Theetge, Ranger, L.P. Dumoulin, Donald Chisholm, Kevin Lacroix, and Pete Shepherd III).
