JRobson Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 Robson and McCauley do it again at Daytona! For the 2nd year in a row Jordan Robson and Ryan McCauley hook up in the Daytona 500 and prevail as McCauley would take the checkered flag in a wild finish. Robson and McCauley sat in the back with 5 laps to go and made their run with 2 laps to go. Both Robson and McCauley hooked up and went from the tail end of the lead lap to first in half a lap. Both would battle side by side off turn 4 for the win until McCauley got in to Robson and slammed the #19 Budweiser chevy in to the wall. McCauley would hold on for the win while it was 3 wide for 2nd! Eric Myers took 2nd, Josh Rhodes 3rd and Robson sliding home with 4th. The top 4 finished with in 1 tenth of a second! The race featured 40 lead changes in a 45 lap race which sets a new SMR/DSR record. Great race guys, that was alot of fun. Caution free with the exception of the competition caution. Points will be up shortly! Hope to see everyone come out next week as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Still amazed from going from 7th to 2nd on the last lap, especially with the way everyone was running, everyone had fast cars and was driving great..it was funny when yall freight trained me, taking the white flag, im like hey this could work out better than expected..and sling shotted around that one wreck and then almost up into the lead taking the checkard, only if I had another half mile.
