Remembering and Honoring Beau Slocumb… Turner Motorsports along with Ryan Newman will honor the life of longtime friend and employee Beau Slocumb by running the No. 08 BRANDT/Realtree Chevy this Friday evening.A native of Macon, Ga., about an hour south of AMS, Slocumb grew up racing. He began his career racing Legends cars and climbed the professional ladder through the late model ranks, eventually making his mark in the ARCA Racing Series, driving the No. 08, before hanging up his driving gloves to work at Turner Motorsports. This past spring, the 26-year-old lost his heroic battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife Jessica, parents Burke “Buster” and Jeanne, brothers Seth and Daniel and sister Maggie.
About Blake… Feese got his start racing quarter midgets at the age of 10. He progressed through the winged sprint car ranks over the years winning championships and prestigious races including wins at Knoxville Speedway, Eldora Speedway and the Dirt Track at Charlotte.

In 2003, he made the switch to stock cars, competing in the ARCA Racing Series (ARS). In 2004, he partnered with Hendrick Motorsports, winning his first ARS event at Nashville Superspeedway. He went on to earn two wins, two top-five and four top-10 finishes that year. The next year he competed in six NNS races and also made his NCWTS debut at Kentucky Speedway. Following a year running the sprit car circuit, he returned to the ARS in 2007, running a limited schedule and earning one top-five and four top-10 finishes in four starts. In 2009, he made his second NCWTS start at Nashville Superspeedway finishing in the 12th position. Earlier this season he returned to Nashville Superspeedway where he started 17th and brought home an 18th place finish.

Blake Feese on Atlanta Motor Speedway:

“I’m looking forward to Atlanta. It’s probably one of the fastest tracks we run all season and I enjoy those big fast tracks. We have a solid package to unload with given Doug George’s (crew chief) strong past here and I’m confident we can have a strong run Friday night in the Accudoc Solutions Chevy.”
