We first heard of USAC Champion Bryan Clauson in 2012, his rookie year at the Indianapolis 500 when he was signing autographs at the hotel we were staying at downtown.
He was very nice and we wished him luck in his first '500'.
From that point on we paid attention to just how good he was in all the many races he ran.
We were excited to find his dog, Chevy's, twitter account over a year ago. We love dogs and it was fun to see Chevy tweet "barked it" whenever his dad won, including his final win.

It was great to hearing the cheers as Bryan took the lead for the 100th running of the Indy 500 for three laps this past May. It was his third start and best finish, of 23rd, in the event.
We'll miss Chevy's updates,
and we'll miss following one of the greatest
all around racers we've ever seen.
We'll be praying for Bryan's family and friends and fur babies.
