Overview

• With qualifying canceled by weather, Connor Zilisch started from pole, dropped to the rear due to a recent collarbone surgery, and executed a preplanned exit.
• An early rain caution on Lap 13/14 enabled a rehearsed driver change, with Parker Kligerman taking over the No. 88 without losing a lap.
• Kligerman drove to an overtime finish and celebrated in Victory Lane, while NASCAR rules credited Zilisch, as the starter, with the win and championship points.
• JR Motorsports locked out the podium with Sammy Smith second and Justin Allgaier third, marking a 1‑2‑3 finish for the team.
• Post‑race, Allgaier held a three‑point lead over Zilisch in the regular‑season standings, as team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. emphasized safeguarding Zilisch’s long‑term health after full medical clearance.
