Josh Berry took home his second NASCAR Xfinity Series win of the year at Charlotte Motor Speedway in the Alsco Uniforms 300 on May 28 after beating Ty Gibbs by a whopping 18.039 seconds.

I actually think it’s a touching act of remembrance. Sanchez didn’t let it drag him down too much, though (see what I did there?), as he did wind up bringing his No. 99 Chevy…
