Clear 28 Agency has officially launched its podcast, Proven. Driven. Born to Perform. Hosted by Brandon McReynolds, managing partner of Clear 28, the show is set to dive into untold stories across the motorsports industry.
McReynolds believes there's something to learn from everyone in the sport, whether you've been in it for 50 years or just getting started.
“We wanted to share stories from our industry's drivers, athletes, business operations, owners, marketers, agents, and everyone in between because in my mind, we can all learn from one another,” McReynolds said. “There are so many stories in motorsports of how someone reached the current point of their career and what they want to achieve or accomplish next.
“I think it’s important not only to share but hear these stories of people in the industry who are PROVEN. DRIVEN. BORN TO PERFORM.”
Clear 28 was founded in January 2022 after McReynolds had a conversation about his career path with two of his mentors from Roush Yates Engines, Jeff Clark, Executive Vice President, and Todd English, Vice President, Marketing & Strategic Partnerships.
Previously, McReynolds had been working alongside Noah Gragson - a now three-time NASCAR All-Star Fan Vote winner. The two had competed against each other on the track during Gragson’s rookie season before McReynolds began pursuing his career off the track in NASCAR. He helped Gragson, who does not come from a racing background, learn to understand NASCAR as a sport and business, how to support his partners, and build relationships on and off the track.
In 2019, McReynolds became a managing partner of Truex Management Group for three years before deciding it was time to seek out a new challenge. After brainstorming with Clark and English, McReynolds was challenged to start a motorsports marketing and driver management agency, and Clear 28 began firing on all cylinders.
Clear 28 took on Gragson and Cole Custer as their first two clients and has only grown from there.
The agency takes massive action to ensure it over-delivers for the driver athletes and brand partners, leveraging deep knowledge and history of motorsports to give their clients a competitive edge. The Clear 28 team works every day to find the best opportunities for their driver athletes, guiding them to their “home” in the sport, while helping them evolve into better race car drivers and human beings.
“At Clear 28, we believe in the power of motorsports to build relationships, inspire success, and drive growth, and we're here to make sure every partnership thrives,” McReynolds said.
When it comes to Clear 28’s brand partners, the agency strives to connect them with the ideal drivers and teams to effectively help them tell their stories to our passionate, expansive fan base.
Four seasons in, Clear 28 is shifting into high gear to tell its story.
When thinking of the guest for the debut episode of Proven. Driven. Born to Perform., Brandon McReynolds couldn’t imagine anyone but Larry McReynolds as the first-ever guest. Known better as “LarryMac,” he shares some behind-the-scenes stories, game-changing insights, and candid moments he experienced with racing legends, including memories of Dale Earnhardt Sr., Davey Allison, as well as his time with Robert Yates, during the first episode of Clear 28’s podcast.
The second episode of Proven. Driven. Born to Perform. will be released early July as Brandon McReynolds sits down with NASCAR Cup Series driver Cole Custer, who has had a meteoric rise in the sport. From racing quarter midgets at just four years old to winning in the NASCAR Cup Series at 22, the 2023 Xfinity Series Champion is the youngest winner in NASCAR’s top three national series and one of the few to win in all three.
