Posted by K1 Staff Writer on

Kyle Larson won The LiUNA! NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Las Vegas, surging from seventh place after the final restart on Lap 154 to win by 2.557 seconds. It was the fifth different winner in five races this season and Larson's 18th career win in the series, driving the No. 88 JR Motorsports Chevrolet.

Chase Briscoe finished second despite hitting the wall and suffering a flat tire, admitting the mistake was his own fault. Sheldon Creed came in third, though he was involved in an incident on Lap 148 when he tapped Taylor Gray's car into the wall, ending Gray's race. Creed acknowledged responsibility for the contact.

Series leader Justin Allgaier finished fourth after leading a race-high 48 laps and sweeping both stages, extending his points lead over Jesse Love to 13. Love ran sixth despite leading 36 laps, as a pit road safety penalty forced him to restart 32nd. He charged back through the field for the solid finish.

Sammy Smith, Connor Zilisch, Corey Day, William Sawalich, and Daytona winner Austin Hill rounded out the top ten. Larson credited clean air as a key factor, noting he was uncomfortable running the high line but thrived once he secured the lead.
