Austin Dillon took the #33 Chevrolet to the win in the 250-mile Xfinity Series race on Saturday evening after avoiding two big wrecks, including one that took out his teammate, the dominant #2 machine of Brian Scott. The first wreck collected Brendan Gaughan, Ryan Reed (the winner in February), Chris Buescher, Darrell Wallace Jr., points leader Ty Dillon and several others. The next crash was triggered when Scott, driving the #2 Chevrolet as a teammate to the Dillon brothers, was trying to block the #1 Ford of Elliott Sadler, but turned too close and spun himself, unable to save his car. Dillon then took the lead and went on to win, with the #18 Toyota of Daniel Suarez spinning into the infield just before the checkered flag. The crashes led to names like Dakoda Armstrong and Benny Gordon snagging top-ten finishes away from the series regular and the handful of Cup drivers in the field, such as the #88 Chevrolet of Kasey Kahne, who won this race in dramatic fashion last year over teammate Regan Smith in the #7 Chevrolet.
