Stenhouse Jr. to Honor Clauson with Special Scheme at Bristol:

#17- Ricky Stenhouse Jr. will pay tribute to the late Bryan Clauson this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway by running the Fastenal scheme that Clauson raced during the 2008 NASCAR XFINITY Series season. ‘It will be a huge honor to run the same Fastenal scheme that Bryan raced in 2008,’ Stenhouse said. ‘This past week has been difficult for many but it has been great to see the racing community join together to support Bryan’s family, friends and Lauren. Bryan was one of my best friends and hopefully we can ‘˜parked it’ in victory lane on Saturday for Bryan.’ In 2008, Fastenal served as the primary partner for Clauson’s #40 Chip Ganassi machine. In his 21 starts, he scored one pole award at Daytona International Speedway and one top-five and two top-10 finishes.(Roush Fenway Racing), see an image of the car on the #17 team paint schemes page.
