Bryan Clauson To Run ‘Indiana Double’
Bryan talked about the chance to do the "Indiana Double", saying "I'm excited to race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Kokomo Speedway on the same day! Kokomo's my absolute favorite place to be on a Sunday night, and I'm always telling people to get out there, so I'm pretty pumped to be running this double. We're going to make it an awesome day for the fans to do the double too! I can't wait to see familiar faces at the 500 and then to have everybody make the trip up to Kokomo that night!"
David Byrd added: "When Bryan asked me what I thought about him running his sprint car at Kokomo on Sunday night after the 500, I told him that I would have been surprised and disappointed if he hadn't planned on doing that anyway. Along with IMS, I know how much Bryan loves Kokomo Speedway, so it only seems right to see him do the double. We've already told everybody at Indy that after Bryan wins the 500 we'll have to take a break from the post-race celebrations so that he can run the feature at Kokomo. We've suggested that they put plans in place to have all of the media and staff head up to Kokomo to continue the festivities."
