Allison was Brandon McReynolds’ godfather.
“Any time you can put the 28 car up front here it’s a good day,” McReynolds said. “It means a lot with Davey going into the Hall of Fame to have his paint scheme here. I got lucky and got a good run. I let off the gas and dropped back a little bit and sucked up on the guys in front of me so that’s where we found that speed.”
McReynolds won an ARCA race at Talladega in 2012.
