REPORT - Ryan_Truex made his NASCAR_Xfinity debut back in 2010. After 13 years, he is finally a winner in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, taking the checkered flag at his home track of Dover (MonsterMile)!
, the 31-year-old younger brother of former Cup champion Martin Truex Jr., has come painstakingly close to victory in both the Xfinity and Truck series during his career.
He finally broke through to Victory Lane on Saturday in a dominating performance to win Saturday’s Xfinity race at his home track of Dover Motor Speedway.. Two of his previous seven top-five finishes in 88 career starts have come driving JGR’s No. 19 Toyota this season. Truex cycled through a late-race round of green-flag pit stops holding the lead despite a hiccup on his stop and cruised to a 4.8-second win over Josh Berry.“I’m out of breath, man. Oh, my God,” said Truex, who is from nearby Mayetta, N.J. “I’m just so thankful – all these fans, my team, everybody that stuck behind me. Most people didn’t believe in me but I still did.
“I’m just so thankful to be here. It’s amazing. With 20 to go, I was just waiting for something to happen. I was praying, ‘Please, God, just keep everything straight and let’s get to the end of this.’
