After claiming Trucks and Xfinity series wins at Texas, Busch failed to complete the sweep, finishing a disappointing 10th. Busch still leads the Monster Energy Cup points standings, holding an 8-point lead over Denny Hamlin.
Maybe it was my low expectations for races at Texas, but Sunday's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 was good. The field didn't get exponentially stretched out as the race progressed, and the leader didn't simply pull away from the car in second.
The NASCAR Gander Outdoor Truck Series visited the Midwest this past weekend to Texas Motor Speedway. It was the fifth race of the 2019 season and from the get-go, the Vankor 350 was a wild event.
Denny Hamlin won Sunday's O'Reilly's Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway, his second win of 2019 and the 33rd of his career. It was also his third win at the speedway after sweeping both events in 2010.
Kyle Busch continues to stretch his record with the most XFINITY Series wins as he raced to victory in the My Bariatrics Solutions 300 at Texas Motor Speedway.
Just when you think someone else in the Truck Series has a great shot to win, Kyle Busch comes through and wins again for the fourth consecutive time this season.
It was a solid night for most of the ThorSport Racing drivers. The finishing order saw Johnny Sauter, Grant Enfinger, and Matt Crafton all finish in the top five.
For the first time since Las Vegas in mid-March, all three of NASCAR's main series will be together and in action as the Gander Outdoors Truck Series, Xfinity Series and the Monster Energy Cup Series will be taking to the fast 1.5-mile Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas.
