Yes they are and Clauson had that wrapped up a few weeks ago. Pretty good season for BC wouldnt you say. Won that and the sprint car championship after missing 4 races plus was the first of our guys to run the 500 since the IRL days. I'm having a hard time seeing how you could vote for anyone else as driver of the year.

That is a good question, after a failed attempt at NASCAR and a trip into the wall and a spin in 20 laps of competition at Indy what does the future hold?

Really? Did you watch him in the Nationwide Series? I did, every race, and he impressed me! That ride went away because of funding. In fact, Ganassi's whole Nationwide program went away. I'm pretty sure Brady Bacon was a casualty of the team going away. Of course, I'm sure you know all of this...

Nope, never had any desire to get in a racecar. Nope, was not trash talking anyone. But, BC has most likely missed another try in NASCAR because of his age, and Indy did not go well, so...... What is wrong with a USAC or WOO for a future, kid does well in sprint cars, WOO has some solid purses??

Trash talk... Ganassi deal went away because of sponsorship not Clauson's performance on the track. How many rookies have ever hit the wall at Indy?

Indy did not go well? He was near the top of the speed charts almost every day of practice. Sure, he crashed in qualifying (on a solid run), and he spun in the race. But, he kept it off the wall, and had the huevos to go back out for another try. Let's see, who smacked the wall that day? Mike Conway, Will Power, Marco Andretti, Takuma Sato; guess you could say Indy didn't "go well" for them, either. |
