A last lap dash made all the difference.

On a rare one lap to go restart, Ty Dillon found a way around leader Max Gresham to record his fourth ARCA event in 11 starts, as Dillon won the RainEater Wiper Blades 200 at Michigan International Speedway Friday.

Gresham, of Griffin, Georgia, had picked up the lead with just four laps remaining when then leader Cale Gale tagged the turn one wall.  That brought out the caution, setting up the last lap scramble for the win.

Dillon, the grandson of NASCAR Sprint Cup champion car owner Richard Childress, beat Gresham back into the first turn on the final restart.  Gresham, piloting a Venturini Motorsports Toyota, closed on Dillon and made a hard charge to the inside coming to the checkered flag, but fell just shot, as Dillon won by a slight 0.118 second margin.  Gresham was second, Tim George Jr. third, with Chad Hackenbracht and Chris Buescher rounding out the top five.

“I’m not sure what Ty did, but he really got a run on the restart when we shifted from second to third gear,” said Gresham. “I felt like I pulled him pretty strong on the initial go and he just rocketed by me. Our car was fast on the straightaways all day, he just got us there. I’m sure if we would have had one more lap, I’d have drove back around him and got the win. We just came up one lap short.”

It was the first superspeedway start for the Griffin, Georgia native, who said he was happy with the overall outcome.

“I’m totally pleased with the way things went this weekend,” said Gresham. “To finish second with the Venturini’s in my first-ever superspeedway start is huge for me. I learned a ton and I can’t wait to do more speedway racing with them again at Pocono and Kansas later this season.”
