Races into Daytona 500 Field
By virtue of finishing 12th in the Bluegreen Vacations Duel 2 at Daytona International Speedway Thursday night, Grala raced his way into the field for Sunday's Daytona 500.
ANALYSIS
It didn't look good for Grala early on, but a lap 49 crash would bring out the caution and bunch the field back up. Grala would take advantage and engage in a thrilling 3-way battle with BJ McLeod and David Ragan for the final transfer spot into the Daytona 500. The driver of the No. 36 Ford would put McLeod behind him coming to the finish line and earn the final spot in the Daytona 500 field.
