Kiwi wins NASCAR

[Bill Cleveland]

In his very first NASCAR Cup Series start in the very first street course race in Cup Series history, New Zealand native Shane van Gisbergen pulled off a stunner and won the Grant Park 220 at the Chicago Street Course. van Gisbergen, a three-time V8 Supercars champion with 80 career wins on the other side of the globe, took the lead from Justin Haley with five laps to go and pulled away to take the victory in a one-off start for Trackhouse Racing's Project91.
