Las Vegas Xfinity results: Justin Allgaier holds off Aric Almirola for win
Reigning champion Justin Allgaier withstood a challenge from Aric Almirola to win Saturday's NASCAR Xfinity race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
It is the first win of the season for Allgaier and his first in the Xfinity Series at the track. Allgaier, who led 102 of the 200 laps, also has scored at least one win for nine consecutive seasons in the series. That ties Kyle Busch and Mark Martin for the Xfinity record for most consecutive seasons with a win.
