Ty Gibbs dominates at Iowa for third ARCA win of season

By Jerry Bonkowski

Ty Gibbs continued to dominate the ARCA Menards Series, winning Saturday’s Shore Lunch 150 at Iowa Speedway.
Gibbs led 135 of the race’s 150 laps, defeating Sam Mayer by 1.410 seconds. Bret Holmes finished third, followed by Chandler Smith and Taylor Gray.
It’s the second straight win and third triumph in his last four of five starts thus far this season for the 17-year-old grandson of NASCAR team owner and Super Bowl winning coach Joe Gibbs.
In addition to a prior win in the ARCA Menards Series East earlier this summer and the 2019 season-ending ARCA Menards Series West race, the younger Gibbs has now won five of his last eight overall ARCA races, as well as eight wins and eight runner-up finishes in his last 25 starts across all three ARCA series.
Hailie Deegan got as high as second place and had a strong car, only to see her day abruptly end early due to a broken trackbar. Deegan finished 18th.
The ARCA Menards Series remains in the Midwest with its next race next Saturday at Kansas Speedway. In addition, the Sioux Chief Showdown resumes with a doubleheader at Ohio’s Toledo Speedway on July 31 and August 1.
