**Bruce Clingan Dominates Knoxville to Take Round 2** Bruce Clingan controlled the feature from start to finish at Knoxville, leading 30 laps and never giving Jake Sonnentag a real look despite the pole sitter's early pressure. Clingan's patience in traffic proved decisive—he managed his tires through the middle stages while Sonnentag began fading, ultimately finishing second. The race stayed clean up front, with Clingan's heat race victory carrying momentum straight through to the checker. Connor Dudek was the story in the midfield, absolutely launching from P20 to crack the top ten and earn hard charger honors with an 11-spot gain. His late-race charge showed aggressive but clean driving that kept him climbing when others packed it in. Clingan's heat victory set the tone for his night and now puts him firmly in contention heading into the back half of the season.
