FE Pro Series championship leader Sean Rayhall added to his oval resume with the Legends Summer Shootout Championship race

WINSTON, GA. (August 17, 2010) - At the ripe young age of 15 years old, Formula Enterprises Pro Series standout Sean Rayhall from Winston, Ga., has been making a name for himself in the oval racing scene, and made an even bigger step last Tuesday by winning the hotly contested Legends Summer Shootout Championship in the Young Lions division. He did so by taking home yet another feature win. Rayhall, who is running combined oval and junior formula car programs this season, currently is second in the National standings, and hopes to take over the top spot by the end of the year.

On July 15, 2010 the largest Legends race in the world was held at Charlotte Motor Speedway. One million dollars was up for grabs for the Pro division winner, so the who?s who of Legends racing gathered for an entry list boasting over 300 entries, including NASCAR star David Ragan. Rayhall competed in the Semi Pro/Young Lions division, along with the Legends Million Pro division. With a rain soaked track, he dominated the Semi Pro race lapping up to fourth position and taking home the win. More impressively he won his heat race in the Legends Million giving him a sixth position starting spot for the Main. After moving up to fifth and running with the leaders, Rayhall started to experience some issues, which eventually forced him to retire.

Not only has Rayhall been having success in the Legends, he has also been dominant in the SCCA sanctioned Formula Enterprises Pro Series this season. With four races left on the schedule, he is leading the championship, having won the last four races. Rayhall has also qualified on pole for every race this season. In one month?s time he will head to the SCCA Runoffs with Comprent Motorsports looking to become the youngest-ever National Champion in the FE division. "I can not thank my dad and Dave Stevens enough for such an incredible season," stated Rayhall. "I am looking forward to what the future may bring, but right now I am focused on ending this season with more wins and championships."

In the 54 total races he has competed in this year, including both Legends and FE, Rayhall has accumulated 35 wins and 36 pole positions, an amazing statistic for this young driver. He also has finished in the top-two 87% of the time in 2010.
