After a couple of months in operation, Briney Motorsports will celebrate its grand opening Friday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 4 p.m.

The celebration is set to continue through Saturday with a free lunch offered from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. along with drawings for free prizes.

The store is also offering specials on a variety of products through both days.

The shop is owned by Billy Briney, who brings experience from area racing, as a racer and part supplier.

“I wanted some kind of store,” he said, in an interview last October. “The first part of this year, we started thinking about opening up a shop.”

His move to open a brick-and-mortar location came from an existing parts supply business he was already operating.

“It was good for me, because I got a customer base,” Briney said.
