The NASCAR Xfinity Series put on a show at Daytona International Speedway but only one driver can come out on top. JR Motorsports driver [autotag]Justin Allgaier[/autotag] narrowly beat Richard Childress Racing driver Sheldon Creed by 0.005 seconds, which ties for the fourth-closest finish in NASCAR Xfinity Series history.
Allgaier’s victory marks his second of the 2023 NASCAR season and his first on a superspeedway track. It also represents the second straight victory for JR Motorsports after Sam Mayer won at Watkins Glen International last weekend. The driver of the No. 7 car now receives a boost as he pushes for a regular-season title.
There are now two races remaining in the 2023 Xfinity Series season with the next event coming at Darlington Raceway next weekend.
