Only two weeks after his victory at Infineon Raceway, Andrew Ranger returned to Victory Lane on a road course, this time in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East race at Lime Rock Park.

Andrew Ranger, who started from pole, took back the lead on lap52 of the 66-circuit event from Cole Whitt and gradually drove away, beating Whitt to the finish line by more than 5.899 seconds.

Joe Gibbs Racing team-mates Max Gresham andĀ Brett Moffitt finished third and fourth, respectively.

Points leader Ryan Truex finished fifth. He led eight laps before sliding off the course and through the dirt in Turn 1 on a Lap 45 restart and lost 11 spots.

Ryan Truex maintained his points lead by 43 points (981-938) over Wallace. Moffitt is third at 891, while Gresham and Whitt round out the top five.

Andrew Ranger won the Coors Light Pole Award Friday and led a race-high 29 laps Saturday in his fourth NASCAR K&N Pro Series East race in the No. 35 Waste Management Chevrolet.

Immediately after the Lime Rock race, Ranger left the track in an effort to catch a flight to Quebec and start the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race at Autodrome St. Eustache.
