2011 has been a great season for Sean Rayhall who is in his rookie year in the Legends Pro Division. In 2010 Sean had a record-breaking year in the very competitive Young Lions division winning over two-thirds of the races he competed in.

Fresh off winning the very prestigious Charlotte Motor Speedway Summer Shootout series in the Pro division, Sean completed the trifecta last week winning his third Championship of the Season. He did so in the Legends Pro division of the Thursday Thunder series at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Sean started the 2011 season winning the Winter Nationals at Auberndale Speedway in Florida; this of course was followed by winning the Charlotte Summer Shootout with four wins in ten starts.

This season Sean made the move into the ultra competitive Pro division in Legends racing. After winning nearly everything in Semi-Pro in 2010 Sean knew it would be difficult to have the same results in 2011, but was confident he could have much success.

Heading into the final round of the Summer Shootout at Charlotte Motor Speedway Sean had a 103 point lead on the defending champion. Starting from pole position Sean slipped back to fifth early in the race. The 16 year old kept his cool as he knew just finishing the race in the top twenty-five would land him his first pro division title. This past Wednesday Sean was crowned the Summer Shootout Pro Division Champion for 2011.
