CONCORD, N.C. — Welcome home, Austin Dillon. Now show us what you can do in the second round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
Dillon wheeled his car onto Charlotte Motor Speedway on Thursday, the beneficiary of two drivers' misfortunes with confidence he can prove himself worthy of success in the Round of 12.
Out of transfer position entering Dover, Dillon ran a solid race while Kyle Larson and Jamie McMurray, the men ahead of him in the standings, came away with busted cars. No knock on Dillon. He did what he had to do to advance.
