This was became a historic one for Austin Dillon, who won the first NASCAR Monster Energy Series of his career and put the No.3 Chevrolet back in Victory Line after 17 years. With his new chief in hand, Dillon was one of the eight drivers who stayed on the track when the strongest in the race, Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr., came to pit road on Lap 368 of 400.
While the mightiest have fallen to the pit stop, Dillon, with enough fuel to catch up, trailed Jimmie Johnson until the seven-time champion ran out of gas with less than three laps left, therefore scoring Dillon's first series win of his career.
Next race is on Dover International Speedway for the AAA 400 Drive for Autism on June 4.
