Tyler Clem Enjoys Outstanding Weekend with USCS at BRP

St. Petersburg, Florida (09/21/16) – 14-year-old, Tyler Clem enjoyed an outstanding weekend in his Vahlco Wheels #14 Bubba Army/ J&J Chassis Sprint Car with the United Sprint Car Series at Bubba Raceway Park.

“There was a lot of veterans in that field, and I feel like we gave them a run for their money both nights,” said Clem. “If you had told me at the start of the weekend that I would get a 2nd and a 3rd, I would’ve definitely have been happy. We are just a tick away from winning some of these big shows. Thanks to my team, sponsors, and fans for their support!”

On Friday night Tyler Clem visited Bubba Raceway Park (Ocala, Florida), powering his Bubba Army #14 Sprint Car in the opening round of the two-day United Sprint Car Series (USCS) Outlaw Thunder Tour presented by K&N Filters weekend at the 3/8-mile oval. Starting the night off with the Engler Machine & Tool heat race victory, Clem earned the pole position for the opening night A-Main. Tyler paced the field for the first three circuits before Losing the top spot on lap 8 to Johnny Gilbertson Tyler would slip one more spot before the checkered flag waved to record a podium finish. He crossed the finish line in 3rd behind Danny Martin Jr. and Johnny Gilbertson with Nick Snyder and Shawn Murray rounding out the Top 5.

For the second night of action with the USCS, Clem started his night by landing a runner-up finish behind Danny Martin Jr. in the Hoosier Tire Speed Dash. He then followed up his dash performance by winning his heat race for the second-straight night, which positioned him starting 3rd on the feature grid. Moving up one spot in the 30-lap affair, Tyler chased Martin Jr. throughout the feature before ultimately, notching a 2nd-place finish behind Martin Jr. with Morgan Turpen, Nick Snyder, and Danny Sams III completing the Top 5 finishers.
