Austin Dillon broke both his personal winless streak and Richard Childress Racing's winless streak in the XFINITY Series. Dillon's last victory came in the 2016 Food City 300 while RCR's last victory came with Michael McDowell at Road America in 2016. The organization went winless the entire 2017 season. Dillon inched teammate Daniel Hemric as the caution was displayed for rain. A few caution laps later the checkers were shown as NASCAR called the LTi Printing 250 official.
Hemric earned his career-best finish of second while Cole Custer, Ryan Reed, and Paul Menard rounded out the top five. The race was delayed and didn't get started till around 5 p.m./ET. Rain continued to threaten the area and ultimately forced NASCAR to call the race with 34 laps remaining.
