Caution on lap 13 for a Josh Wise spin on the backstretch. Josh didn't hit anuthing and drove back to the pits.

Back racing it is now lap 20 of 100 and Bryan is in the lead pack running 13th at the moment. Wise is back out and in 35th.

Nearing halfway with 48 of 100 laps done. Brad Keselowski leading with Bryan doing a great job in 6th.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

67 laps down. The top three (Hamlin, Earnhardt Jr., and Kyle Busch) have broken from the pack. Bryan is now 10th.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

81 laps down. Carl Edwards leading with Bryan now 12th. Some of the leaders are making pit stops including Mike Bliss who had been leading.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Bryan up to 10th with 11 laps to go!

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Bryan now 9th with 8 laps remaining.:thumb

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Caution with 3 to go. Colin Braun hit the wall on the backstretch. Hamlin leading Kyle Busch and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Bryan still is 9th. There will be a green - white - checker finish.:eek:

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Bryan got the shaft on that restart. After running in the top 10 - 12 all night he was shuffled back to 19th in the 2 lap shootout at the end. Congrats to Denny Hamlin and the Gibbs #20 team for the win. Great run Bryan despite the ending!:thumb

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

They interviewed him afterwards and he said he missed a shift on the last restart. Still drove a hell of a race. Who needs Franchitti anyway.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Yea, he did do a hell of a job.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Good weekend, now lets hope Mr. Judd can go back to Indy and leave Bryan's ride alone.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

The only reason I stayed home on the 4th to watch a race. Way to go Bryan!!!

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Franchitti's impact on Bryan's deal isn't really Dario's fault. Ganassi/Sabates is the one with the issue. I feel bad for both Dario and Bryan since they're trying to deal with a situation that they have little, if any control over.....

IMO, Dario shouldn't be blamed for anything, except for poor judgement.... after all, he did sign with Ganassi......

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Keep Bryan in the car. Let's build a future.....

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Woth noting that they gave Dario the option to run the race this week, basically booting Bryan out of the car. For whatever reason, he obviously didn't - good move on his part.

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Like I said, it's "they" - Ganassi/Sabates, not Franchitti. IF they offered the ride, and Dario turned it down, Dario's not the bad guy here......

Re: Bryan Clauson Race Updates
 

Good job Bryan! Still glad I went and saw a LIVE race though instead of clinging to the board. Gas City was excellent. Could have watched T.V for the above info. Oh Well. To each his own.
