Braselton Ga:

Clem Racing Inc. (CRI) had its best weekend of racing ever!! Stewart Haas racing Developmental drivers Michael Atwell and Tyler Clem competed in the USAC Eastern States Series Championship .25 Next Gen races this past weekend in Braselton Ga. With nearly 100 cars entering the event the competition was stiff. Tyler qualified 2nd and sat on the outside pole of the Jr Honda race and passed pole sitter Chandler Smith midway thru the race and never looked back as Tyler went on to capture victory in the Jr Honda division AMain.

Tyler then set a new track record in the Briggs Jr Animal Division and sat on the pole of the AMain.
As Tyler was passing a lapped car the two tangled knocking off Tylers chain forcing him to come to the
pits for a quick repair. Upon the restart of the race Tyler due to his pit and repair was lined up in the rear of the field, Tyler then managed to pick off the entire field except the leader who had a sizeable lead with 6 laps to go. A yellow came out due to a wreck, with 5 laps remaining Tyler dove down low on the restart and went on to victory, picking up his 3rd Amain win of the weekend, and a first for Tylers young career.

A night before Tyler competed in the QMA Jr Honda division in New Smyrna. Tyler won that Amain as well.

Michael Atwell had a record breaking weekend as well. Michael set new track records in 2 of his 3 Divisions. Michael sat on the pole in all three of his races, and won the A mains in Light 160, Briggs SR Animal, and just got nipped on the last lap finishing second to Garrett Jones in the Light Briggs World formula.

Tyler lead the first 36 of 40 laps. Tyler finished 4th.
