Larry McReynolds

Lawrence Joseph McReynolds III (born January 10, 1959) is a NASCAR crew chief and current racing analyst on Fox Sports as well as a columnist on Foxsports.com. He served as a Winston Cup crew chief from 1985 to 2000, amassing 23 Cup wins, 21 poles, 122 top-five and 209 top-ten finishes. In the past, he has served as an advisor to Petty Enterprises, and as a minority owner in Bang! Racing. On April 17, 2022, he announced that he would make his return as a crew chief for Jeffrey Earnhardt at the Ag-Pro 300 for Richard Childress Racing. He will be the first time in 22 years that that team led the race in 124 laps in the first race of the season. He is an only child. His NASCAR career began in 1975. He worked his way up the ladder and took his first crew chief job in 1985. His success earned him selection as an all-star "who's who" of crew members, for five straight years (1991–1995), and the UAW Teamwork of Excellence award.
