Brett Moffitt made the most of an off weekend in the Xfinity Series, winning Saturday’s NASCAR Truck race at Talladega Superspeedway in dramatic style in overtime.Moffit, making his first start of the 2023 season in a second entry for Front Row Motorsports, took control of the race late in the third stage but lost the lead to Christian Eckes just before a late wreck sent the race into a two-lap overtime.
Moffitt held off a late charge from Ben Rhodes to claim his 13th career victory and first since the 2020 season.“Man, this is pretty awesome,” said Moffitt. “I’ve notably struggled at superspeedways in the past and dreaded coming to them but this was an all-pressure-off situation. Completing the top-10 were Daniel Dye, Nick Sanchez, Hailie Deegan, Parker Kligerman and Lawless Alan.Sanchez edged Carson Hocevar by 0.058 seconds in a wild last lap to take the Stage 1 win. Heim was third, Majeski fourth and Bret Holmes rounded out the top five.
Taylor Gray got spun by Bayley Currey coming off Turn 2 on lap 51 to trigger a multi-truck accident that also collected Matt Crafton, Tyler Ankrum and playoff drivers Enfinger and Majeski.After another accident involving Currey, Enfinger and Tyler Hill, Moffit grabbed the lead on a restart and control of the race with 37 laps to go.
