On March 29, the Cup Series traveled to Texas for the third meeting of the 2019 season. All that happened was a highly exciting race filled with storylines. Holding off a bevy of contestants, Speedyman11 drove to a well-deserved win with the aid of patient techniques, leading 84 of 98 laps and besting lepage71 by 0.7 seconds. En route to finishing second, lepage71 led two laps of his own to burnish a serious battle for the trophy. In a fine effort, d3efan laid claim to the bronze medal, crossing the finish 3.1 seconds behind Speedyman11. No slowpokes, Bandit and Jes Rathbun were also significant factors, locking down fourth and fifth to fill out the top-five. The victory, Speedyman11's second of the season, strengthens his buffer over lepage71 in the standings to six points. In its next event, the Cup Series heads to Bristol in what promises to be another shootout.
