Race 13 brought us to the state where most race teams have their shops. The race at Charlotte brought some mayhem. Kyle Larson grabbed the pole, with James Buescher alongside of him. But it's not how you start, it's how you finish. The field only lasted until Lap 5, when an accident occured. It took out Matt Kenseth, Brendan Gaughan, Jason Bowles, and Tanner Berryhill. A few cars had damage, though, and that would affect the outcome. Jason White was one of those cars. When the leaders caught up to him, James Buescher tried taking him on the high side. White then drifted up in front of the top lane, so those cars all got forced back. Once running 2nd, Buescher got forced to 26th. Kyle Larson had the point. Larson led a total of 42 laps, and relented the lead to the JR Motorsports cars. Then another caution came out for debris. Regan Smith, Chase Elliott, and Kevin Harvick were dominating the field when during the caution, Chase came into the pits. He did not have enough fuel to keep on going. Chase came back out 1 lap down. It was no cake walk for Smith, as Larson, Harvick, Ryan Blaney, and Elliott Sadler were right there at the end. Smith kept them off though, and took his 4th victory, and JR Motorsports' 8th. Larson grabbed his third 2nd place finish. The competitors for the last Dash4Cash competition are Smith (since he won, he took the $10,000 prize), Blaney, Sadler, and Brian Scott.
