TANNER SWANSON TERRORIZES TRAXXAS SILVER CROWN “J.D. BYRIDER 100”

Clermont, Indiana…….Tanner Swanson of Kingsburg, California picked up his second-career Traxxas Silver Crown win and the first for car owner Mike Bowman in dominant fashion during*Saturday night’s “J.D. Byrider 100” at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis.

Swanson started from row-two and followed his brother Kody to a comfortable margin in the opening laps before hounding the lead before the race even hit lap ten. By lap 15, Tanner was able to clear Kody and take a lead that would never be challenged.

Swanson opened up a half-track margin as he lapped through the field, slowed only by one caution at the halfway mark. The dominating performance ended just short of lapping the sixth-place car for the Bowman/Canine Racing – Banjo Corporation #11 Beast/Kistler.

Kody Swanson, who also took the pole, racked up his second runner-up finish of the season in the DePalma Motorsports – Radio Hospital #63 Beast/Hampshire, and David Byrne recorded his best career Silver Crown finish as he rounded out the podium in the Byrne Racing – Bytec #40 Beast/Chevy.

Chris Windom finished fourth in the Rotondo Weirich – Curb Records #7 Beast/Wallace Toyota, and Tracy Hines rounded out the top-five in the Lightfoot Racing #16 Beast/Stanton Mopar.
