It all started with Brutonโs Vision.
In 1995, Bruton Smith shared his vision for Texas Motor Speedway with the world, breaking ground that same year and beginning to open the gates to fans in 1996. By 1997, that dream roared to life with the first race, and thanks to Bruton Smith and the Smith family, TMS became the legacy it is today.

Jim Phillips was the first @MRNRadio pit reporter who had been a crewman, working on and pitting race cars; and, he had radio broadcast experience in his hometown Newport TN.
That was a great combination of skill sets for us, and Jim was an excellent reporter. RIP, Chopper.
