Bryan’s Story
DRIVER. BROTHER. FIANCÉ. DOG LOVER. SON. CHAMPION. HERO. DONOR. At just 27 years old, that is the legacy that Bryan Clauson left for his family, friends, and fans. Behind his fame as one of the nation’s top short-track, dirt-car drivers, Bryan was always humble, gracious and the ultimate role model. Expecting nothing in return, he had a knack for making everyone around him feel welcomed and important.
On the darkest day of his family’s life, a selfless decision Bryan made while still alive gave them a ray of hope. Bryan was a registered donor. On August 7, 2016, following a racecar crash, Bryan saved five lives and healed many more through his gift of organ and tissue donation.
Bryan continues to be an inspiration to many. As a donor, he has motivated over 6,000 people to register their donation decision, which could lead to countless other lives saved.
