Chastain takes Truck race at Iowa for 2nd victory

NEWTON, Iowa -- Ross Chastain cruised to a win in the NASCAR Truck Series race on Sunday at Iowa Speedway, his second victory of 2019.

Chastain led the final 141 laps to clinch his second win in four races -- but his first since he switched his championship aspirations from the Xfinity Series to the trucks a few weeks ago.

Sunday's win will be the first one to count toward Chastain's playoff hopes, which improved greatly after a dominant run on Iowa's short oval.

Brett Moffitt, the defending series champion, finished second on his hometown track.
