With a two-tire call on a late-race pit stop, Austin Dillon stole Friday night’s Fast Five 225 Camping World Truck Series race at Chicagoland Speedway from Kevin Harvick, who had dominated the event until the last round of stops.
Dillon won his second race of the season and the fourth of his career. Harvick came home second, almost five seconds back. Nelson Piquet Jr., Parker Kligerman and Kyle Busch completed the top five. NASCAR.com
“This is the best [win],” Dillon said after he captured his second victory of the season and the fourth of his truck career. “These guys [pit crew] are awesome. They got me out of pit road first.”
With the win, Dillon moved to within three points of leader James Buescher, who finished 11th. Just seven races remain in the season.
Busch had been battling Harvick for the second position in the closing laps before one of Busch’s tires began to go flat. MiamiHerald.com
