Fast cars, great company, and a winning weekend! Matt McKenna and Morgan Wylie had an incredible time at the NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway in Charlotte, NC with our valued partner, MPA. From the adrenaline of race day to celebrating the NAPA car taking home the win, it was an unforgettable experience at one of racing’s biggest stages! 🏁

I am pleased to announce the promotion of Terrance Maddox to Vice President of Sales for O’Reilly Auto Parts. Terrance has been with BMA for nine years and has done a phenomenal job growing the business. He began his career with O’Reilly at age 21 in a store, advanced to store manager, transitioned into outside sales, and ultimately became a category manager at headquarters in Springfield during his 15-year tenure with the company. His deep knowledge of O’Reilly and its processes has been invaluable to our vendors. Terrance’s ability to lead, collaborate, and execute has earned him the respect and trust of O’Reilly and our vendor partners. Terrance represents the very best of our organization, and his promotion reflects the impact he has made over the years.

Please join me in congratulating Terrance on this well-deserved promotion. We look forward to his continued success in this new role.

Best regards,
Bill Murray, Jr.
