Tyler Reif finished sixth in the Bush’s Beans 200 at Bristol Motor Speedway on September 11, closing the 2025 ARCA Menards Series East season as championship runner-up. The race counted toward both the national and East championships.

Reif qualified fourth in the No. 23 SPS Chevrolet and completed all 204 laps after overtime extended the scheduled 200-lap distance. Despite feeling unwell during the week, he finished on the lead lap, 1.862 seconds behind winner Brent Crews. Isaac Kitzmiller finished eighth to take the East title.

Bristol’s 0.533-mile concrete oval in Tennessee has corners banked from 24 to 28 degrees. Its first NASCAR race in July 1961 required two drivers: Jack Smith earned the win with relief from Johnny Allen.

Kansas is next on the team’s schedule. Vegas Fasteners, Chevrolet and GMS Fabrication supported the SPS campaign.
