History
In 1952 Bobby Myers, Burt's great uncle, set the record for the youngest driver ever to win a Stadium title at the age of 25. Bobby won 16 Races and 1 championship in 1952. Five years later, in 1957, Bobby was killed in a crash at Darlington Raceway in Darlington, South Carolina while driving for Lee Petty. Billy Myers was Burt Myers grandpa and he ranks 20th with 22 victories on Bowman Gray Stadium's Modified All-Time Wins List, and he has won 3 championships ('51,'53,'55). Billy died at Bowman Gray Stadium. In 1999, at the age of 23, Burt Myers broke his great uncle's record.
Burt's father, Gary Myers, is the second generation of Myers' to compete at Bowman Gray Stadium. Gary ranks seventh on the stadium's all-time victory list with a total of thirty-eight (38) wins. In addition, he was the 1996 champion on the NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour.
Burt, along with his brother, Jason, represent the third generation of Myers racing. Burt quickly established himself as a serious competitor on the NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour. The Myers Family (Billy, Bobby, Gary, Burt and Jason), is currently first on the Families All-Time Wins List with 150 wins.
In 2009 Myers made his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut at Martinsville Speedway in the Kroger 200. He drove the No. 07 JRC Investments / Wyatt Winstead Foundation Chevrolet owned by Ken Smith. He would start 17th and finish 19th, one lap down.
