The NASCAR Xfinity Serie<\/a>s had plenty of hype coming into Texas Motor Speedway. Especially with Connor Zilisch having to miss the race because of a lower back injury. That put Kyle Larson into his No. 88 Chevy for the Andy’s Frozen Custard 300. So, was it shocking that Larson, paired with JR Motorsports, wouldn’t be inclined to win? Larson did exactly that on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Was it an easy win for Larson? Certainly not after his recent comments about wanting to come down to the series whenever and dominate<\/a> the races. He had plenty of challengers, including fellow JRM driver Justin Allgaier, along with the likes of Austin Hill and Sam Mayer, trying to score the victory. Not to mention multiple overtime attempts.<\/p>\n

Austin Hill and Allgaier led the field to the green flag. Meanwhile, Larson had to climb from a 20th-place starting spot.<\/p>\n
