Gus Dean wins chaotic ARCA race at Daytona
The ARCA race followed a similar theme of chaos after a frantic Truck race at Daytona. Notable drivers like Toni Breidinger were eliminated in a multi-car crash early in the event. Shane van Gisbergen also fell victim in his first Daytona oval start. The late-night race, moved up due to expected rain, saw several more incidents, including a significant wreck with 18 laps to go. Despite chaos, Gus Dean emerged as the winner, claiming Venturini’s 100th ARCA victory and dedicating the win to his late grandfather. Dean reflected on his racing journey and small-town roots in post-race comments to FS1, expressing his gratitude for the support behind him.
