Buescher was in 11th place as he headed into the final turn of the race, but was able to make his way through an 11 car crash to move into first and take the checkered flag.

“They all piled up in front of me, and we made it through,” Buescher said. “It’s hard to describe the feeling when you make it through the wreck and you’re the only guy. You don’t see anybody in front of you coming to the checkered flag. It’s pretty incredible.”

The victory was Buescher’s first career win.
