Great job Bryan!! I thought for a while it was Winchester the way that Dodge was up against the wall. The only reason to watch is to see the open wheel guys hand it to the taxi cab boys. Keep up the good work. :thumb

Congrats to Bryan and his entire family.

Living in NC, I've been deeply entrenched in NASCAR since the early 70's. What I saw today was spectacular and, as the race wound down, I could only compare his run to one other young driver, Jeff Gordon. And, this run was far better than Jeff's runs in his rookie Busch year. And, we all know how his career developed.

Davey Allison was my favorite driver starting with his ARCA days, and seeing the car with the Texaco star flying along in the high groove brought back a lot of great memories.

I haven't enjoyed a weekend of NASCAR racing as much as I enjoyed today's race (and the Truck race Friday night). I'm actually hyped to watch the 500 tomorrow for the first time in years.

I believe the collective NASCAR nation was introduced to the next super star today.

Congratulations Bryan. Great qualifying run. Great job in the race. Great finish. You are and always have been one very talented racer. You really turned some heads at Daytona. Keep up the good work. :applaud:

I hope my previous post didn't come off as sounding like I was p!$$!ng on Bryan's parade. I know American circle trackers have no choice but to aspire to NASCAR. NASCAR has very smartly put a development program in place for young homegrown talent while Indy Car/CCWS actively pursues young foreigners with money. I felt the same way about Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Ryan Newman and the rest of our guys that went over there. I wish they were all running Indy cars but, that wasn't meant to be, for now. The only reason I even turn on a NASCAR marathon is because of our Sprint/Midget guys that have made the switch. Good luck, Bryan, we'll all be keeping an eye on you!

Congratulations Bryan.....The Rumbleseries.com is proud that you were the youngest USAC National event winner ever at our Open Wheel Oktoberfest Midget event at Columbus Motor Speedway in October of 2005.

Before the event, the race didn't really stand out as a must see among the masses. BUT history was made that day, and will be in the books forever.

We follow your career with great interest.

Best,
Tony Barhorst
