Allgaier cruises in Xfinity

Justin Allgaier used a dominating performance on Saturday to win his first Xfinity race of the season and the third of his career at Darlington Raceway. Allgaier led 119 of 147 laps, sweeping both stages as he finished ahead of Austin Hill and defending series champion Cole Custer. Allgaier moved past Hill early in the second stage and never gave up the lead, staying in front for the final 95 laps. Only two of the five cautions in the race were for accidents — and they proved to be Allgaier’s trickiest moments of the race. The first came with 39 laps to go after Hailie Deegan wrecked and the other came with 16 laps left when Kyle Sieg spun out. Allgaier sped off from the field both times and cruised to his 24th career Xfinity victory to equal the total of JR Motorsports owner Dale Earnhardt Jr.
