Austin Dillon Dominates, Wins First Nationwide Series Race

TotalSportsBlog 11 years ago 3 Min Read

For the first since Dale Earnhardt, Jr. won at Daytona International Speedway nearly two years ago has the No. 3 been in victory lane in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. Tonight add Austin Dillon to the list of drivers celebrating behind the wheel of the infamous number, but this time in a black number 3.

“It is awesome for the races who support me,” Dillon said about driving the number 3 to victory lane.

Dillon, who captured the Coors Light Pole earlier on Friday, dominated the Feed the Children 300 leading a new record of 192 of the 200 laps. He would surpass Carl Edwards who had the previous record of 150 laps, set back in 2005 during this race.

Kyle Busch, owner of the No. 54 driven by his brother Kurt Busch, described Dillion’s domination as being on the “money” the entire race.

Dillon only gave up the lead during the two green-flag pit stops during the race. Other leaders include Michael Annett, Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. and Justin Allgiaer.

The win for Dillon was his first NASCAR Nationwide Series victory.

There was trouble in the Joe Gibbs Racing camp as Denny Hamlin and Brian Scott both blew an engine. Kurt Busch, who also gets his engines from JGR, was having issues to involve a blown cylinder.

The race included two cautions, the first happening on Lap 25 when Jamie Mosley spun and the second was when Mike Wallace hit the wall causing debris on the track.

Dillion now leads the NASCAR Nationwide Series points standings by 2 points over Elliott Sadler, who finished 9th. However, after the race, the No. 3 failed post race inspection as it was too low for the heights for the rear.  Expect NASCAR to hand down a penalty on Tuesday.  Typically this is a 6 point penalty, or that’s what happened to Dillon’s Richard Childress Racing teammate Elliott Sadler when the same thing happened to his No. 2 Chevrolet after the Iowa Nationwide race earlier this season.

The next race for the NASCAR Nationwide Series is next Friday night, July 6th at Daytona International Speedway. Can the number 3 end up in victory lane again?
