LFR CHASSIS
SECURES THIRD 2016 NWMT WIN
WITH BOBBY SANTOS AT THOMPSON SPEEDWAY
Chassis Company Has Won Three of Five NWMT Races This Season |
 A
familiar face recently returned to Victory Lane, as
Bobby Santos and Tinio Motorsports’ LFR Chassis
modified car finished first at Thompson Speedway
Motorsport Park. This victory marks Santos’ 14th
career win in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour (NWMT)
and the third win for LFR Chassis this season, as
the company also supplies chassis for Doug Coby.
“Bobby’s win at Thompson Speedway is a huge win for
the whole organization,” said Rob Fuller, President
of LFR Chassis. “We’ve really raised the bar this
season by having championship-caliber drivers like
him and Doug Coby in LFR Chassis equipment. They’ve
proven that the product we are putting out on the
track is top of the line and can win anywhere at any
time.”
After having tire issues throughout the beginning of
the Thompson 125 and pitting multiple times, Santos
was able to make a daring, last-lap pass for the
win. Santos and Tinio Motorsports switched to LFR
Chassis at the start of the 2016 season and have
provided proven results, as they have racked up one
win, one Top-5 and three Top-10s so far this season.
Coming out of a 25-race winless streak, it is
evident that the switch to LFR Chassis has proved
beneficial for the 2010 NWMT champion and his team.
"It has been a struggle for the last one and half
years,” said Santos. “Both myself and the team are
used to winning, so not to win since July 2014 was
rough. We switched over to LFR Chassis in hopes to
get things moving again and be in contention to win,
so it feels great to accomplish that. The whole team
just feels so good about this, it was way overdue!"
Although Santos and Tinio Motorsports only recently
switched to LFR Chassis, Santos is confident in his
team’s abilities along with the support they receive
from LFR Chassis’ Rob Fuller and Ryan Stone in his
No. 44 Tinio Corp. Chevrolet.
"We expect to win a lot more now before the end of
the season,” said Santos. “This last win gave the
team a big boost in morale and has put us in the
position we need to be in to win. Everyone is
excited again and motivated, so it's like we're back
on track. I really can't thank LFR Chassis enough
for working with Tinio Motorsports, Ray Graham and
myself. Rob Fuller and Ryan Stone from LFR have been
a huge help to the whole team and the car drives
excellently."
With this victory, LFR Chassis has dominated the
NWMT and has won over half the races of the season
thus far.
“I’m really confident in the future of LFR Chassis,”
said Fuller. “We recently took on an investment
group and have the financial backing to focus solely
on the product and the cars we are providing to our
customers. 2016 is going to be a great year for all
of us.”
