John Hunter Nemechek: Wins Heat 2

Nemechek won Heat 2 at Sunday's iRacing Food City Showdown and will start No. 2 in the main event.

Analysis:

Nemechek barely held off a late charge from Ryan Preece, who appeared to be getting the edge in the simulated race's final laps. Nemecheck will effectively start second in the primary race, trailing only pole-sitter William Byron.
