While racing in Bristol Tennessee this past weekend David came across some horrible stomach issues! He was so sick that his team already had a stand by relief driver Aric Almirola for his No 00 Toyota. David Reautimann is currently holding 17th in standings for the 2010 Sprint Cup, and is behind the leader by 756 points as of now. He was able to come in behind Kyle Busch during the Irwin Tools Night Race at the Bristol Speedway. This was his best finish by far since leading a season-high 52 laps and claiming his second career victory at Chicagoland on July 10. Reutimann's effort Saturday was nearly worth his second win of the season and third of his four-year Cup career. But after racing side-by-side with Busch's No. 18 Toyota for several laps, he finally gave up the lead for good with 72 laps remaining when Busch appeared to get him loose, Reutimann bobbled, and Busch raced on by. He will compete in the next race in Atlanta for the Emory Healthcare 500 event!
