Bryan Clauson Masters Cowtown Midget Championships
2/15/09, DarinShort.com. Indiana’s Bryan Clauson made the long tow to the D/FW Metroplex pay off Saturday night, in the
tune of $3,000, by picking up the City Vending Cowtown Midget Championships presented by Smiley’s Racing Products at
Cowtown Speedway.
After a heartbreaking flat tire while leading the closing laps of the Friday night feature event, Clauson held off a
determined J.J. Yeley for the win.
Bryan commented after the race that a couple of more laps he felt Yeley would have pressured him much harder, as the
two cars were becoming very equally matched.
Due to an all-time track record 253 cars converging upon the ¼ mile speed plant, the Saturday schedule was moved up
about an hour, which resulted in an abbreviated pre-race autograph session with Yeley and Clauson that was previously
planned. With a 4pm start time, the entire midget program was completed before 7pm.
Both Yeley and Clauson thrilled the fans with their candor and approachability by giving fans a second autograph session
after the race. The drivers spoke one-on-one, signed everything from apparel, dollar bills, people’s arms and whatever
else the throngs of fans requested for about 45 minutes.
You can catch both teams next weekend at the Copper on Dirt USAC sanctioned event next weekend at Phoenix’s
Manzanita Speedway.
Cowtown Speedway would like to thank the fans, teams, sponsors and track workers for all pulling together to make this
inaugural event a success, and are looking forward to building it into the future. We would also like to thank Kennedale
Speedway Park for the use of their pit area for 'overflow' from the Cowtown pit area, which kept teams from getting
squeezed together closely.
Here is the finishing order of the midget A-feature: (39b) Bryan Clauson, (1) J.J. Yeley, (99) Brady Bacon, (36) Jonathan
Beason, (05) Brad Loyet, (11a) Andrew Felkr, (93) Bryan Harvey, (12c) Rick England, (7m) Kevin Ramey, (11x) Ricky Williams,
