Third at Portland International Raceway
XFINITY Series
June 1, 2024
Smith finished third in the Pacific Office Automation 147 NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Portland International Raceway Saturday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
The driver of the No. 8 Chevrolet stayed on a roll despite racing on a road course this weekend. Smith started ninth on the grid and battled among the Top 10 most of the way. The young driver couldn't get to the lead, but he'd consolidate his grip on good track position late and be in a great spot after the final caution period. Smith would hold off road racing ace, AJ Allmendinger, to claim the strong third-place finish. It was his second straight week in the Top 5 and Smith moved into 10th-place in the driver point standings as a result.
