Chase Elliott to sweep the road courses !!

That is bold of me to say but it is possible. This is Chase :)

The Friday Truck race at Daytona Road course was raced in the rain :eek:

Then on Saturday night, the Xfinity cars took to the Road Course with good weather for the race.

Ty Gibbs, the 18-year-old in his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut, won in his first series start, holding off reigning champion Austin Cindric on the Daytona International Speedway Road Course.
Gibbs took the lead on a restart in double overtime and held off the field to the finish line.
Ty's ride is the #54 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota — a car owned by his grandfather, NASCAR Hall of Famer Joe Gibbs.

He got me on the pool podium last year....

[Oakster]

Just because almost everyone else is on the Chase wagon, I'll pick Martin Truex Jr in the 19.

[dara]

Chase Elliott wins stage 1, easily.

[Oakster]

He's making a mockery of NASCAR's decision to add road course races.

[dara]

Denny Hamlin gets Stage 2.

[dara]

If you left thinking that Chase Elliott was going to walk away from the rest of the field, well...

[crazed 9.6]

last lap and Bell is on it !!!

[dara]

Nice win by Christopher Bell, his first, after Joey Logano ran out of tire and brakes.

[4me2c]

1st Career WIN for Bell WTG...!!!

[crazed 9.6]

Christopher Bell !!!

[dara]

Final official results coming up, Next week Homestead.

[Oakster]

Two first time winners in two weeks to start the season! Awesome!

[dara]

Want to say good comebacks by Kurt Busch and Brad Keselowski too. Fun race to watch, I hope they consider making Daytona RC a permanent add to the schedule

[crazed 9.6]

Two first time winners in two weeks to start the season! Awesome!

3 if you count Joe Gibb's young grandson Ty Gibbs, in last night's Xfinity race.
