There wasn't a question of which driver is better 'suited' to participate, the simple fact is that Levi Jones competes for TSR in both the USAC National Sprint Car & Silver Crown Series and is the team's Sprint Car series representative. Clauson competes for TSR in the USAC Silver Crown Series as a teammate to Jones. He competes for another entity in the USAC National Sprint & Midget Car Series. Both Clauson and Jones are championship-caliber drivers and we're proud to have them as part of our organzation.
Had he not had other obligations, Jones would be in the car for the event. We appreciate Bryan's willingness to attend and participate without any seat time in the car. We're confident that he'll represent our corporate partners, USAC Racing and TSR exceptionally well. TSR is also proud to have the opportunity to present the USAC Series and open-wheel racing to another potential group of race fans as well as put the team's name in the record books at Bristol Motor Speedway.
