Sheldon Creed wins Truck Series road race, $50K bonus at Daytona

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Sheldon Creed's previous experience on the road course at Daytona International Speedway consisted of three simulator sessions and some iRacing laps.

"Brett Moffitt kills me at iRacing," Creed said of his GMS Racing teammate.

Creed showed he's much better at the real deal. Creed won the NASCAR Truck Series race on Daytona's road course Sunday, holding off Moffitt following a late restart.

It was Creed's second victory of the season -- both coming in the last five weeks. This one helped Creed bounce back from consecutive poor showings, a 26th-place finish in Kansas and a 30th in Michigan.
