NASCAR Chevy Teams Bested By Toyota Xfinity Dover April 2023: Video

The NASCAR Chevy teams put up a good fight at Dover Motor Speedway for the Xfinity Series race on April 29th, 2023, but ultimately fell victim to the No. 19 Toyota TRD Supra of Ryan Truex at the drop of the checkered flag.

The No. 48 Camaro of Parker Kligerman led the field to green, but his time up front was short-lived. He spun off Turn 2 on Lap 64, forcing his early retirement from the race, and was ultimately scored dead last in 38th. Then, the No. 21 Camaro of Austin Hill emerged as a contender for the top spot, giving Truex in the No. 19 Supra a run for his money as they battled on the restart.

The No. 21 NASCAR Chevy of Hill once again put the pressure on the No. 19 Supra of Truex during Stage 3, while the No. 7 Camaro of Justin Allgaier charged through the field to challenge the leaders. However, after the last cycle of pit stops, the No. 19 Supra of Truex once again took over the lead, while the No. 8 Camaro of Josh Berry trailed him by almost five seconds.

“We made some good adjustments in the second half of the race, the pit crew executed well the last couple stops and had a good green flag cycle and got up to second but the 19 (Truex) was just too far out and it seemed like he was the best car all day,” Berry explained after the race. “It’s a fun day, I love this race track. Hate we didn’t get the win, but it was a great rebound and great day for us.”

Cole Custer, driver of the No. 00 Ford Mustang, finished ahead of the three other drivers eligible for the Dash 4 Cash, and therefore won the $100,000 bonus. It’s also worth noting that Truex’s victory in the No. 19 Supra marks his first-ever NASCAR win.
