Brian Rose’s Life Back On Track
Caught in the Catchfence™
More importantly than regaining his racing career, the young Bowling Green, Ky., driver has his life back.
Rose was scheduled to make his racing return last Friday at Nashville Superspeedway but failed to make the truck race lineup. He plans to try again May 2 at Kansas.
Rose and I just missed each other at the track. I was running late, and when I went for him in the garage he’d just departed. He told Terrell Davis, host of a local racing radio show, that he hoped to see me somewhere down the trail.
I covered Rose during his racing days at old Fairgrounds Speedway and was fond of him. He was bright and personable and showed flashes of serious talent.
I thought he had the potential to follow a long procession of Fairgrounds racers up the NASCAR ladder, drivers like Darrell Waltrip, Sterling Marlin and Bobby Hamilton.
