(May
15, 2022) The Watson Racing team celebrated in victory
lane for the first time in 2022 on Saturday night, May 14 at the
nearby Brownstown Speedway in Brownstown, Indiana! Brayden Watson
turned the second quickest lap in his group during Open Wheel
Modified qualifying prior to picking up a last lap heat race triumph.
After rolling off from the outside of the front row in the weekly
main event at the 1/4-mile oval, Brayden came out on top of a
great race to capture the $600 winner's check over a top five
that included Jordan Wever, John Clippinger, Tim Prince, and Matt
Boknecht!
A night earlier, the #93w team was in the pit area on Friday
at Bloomington Speedway in Bloomington, Indiana to compete in
the annual 'Roddy Strong Memorial.' The popular Open Wheel Modified
special boasted a $4,009 top prize. Brayden stopped the clock
sixth quickest in Group A during the qualifying session and later

started the 30-lap headliner from the outside of the fifth row
before steering past four competitors during the caution-free
contest to land in the sixth finishing position. Complete results

their version of the 2022 racing season at Florence Speedway in
Union, Kentucky on Saturday, April 16. The 46th edition of the

and a $1,000 top prize was up for grabs for the open wheel warriors.
Brayden advanced from eighth to second in his heat race and later

He was then running a strong second in the A-Main when a lapped
car unfortunately spun right in front of him and collected his
Diamond racecar. The incident dropped Brayden to a disappointing
fifteenth place performance in his season lid lifter, but the
Watson Racing team is very pumped about the speed of the car in
its first race out of the box! Full results from yesterday at
