GREENVILLE, N.C. – Sergio Peña turned in a dominating effort in rolling to his third win of the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East season Saturday in the Kevin Whitaker Chevrolet 140.

Peña qualified second and took the lead from pole winner Corey LaJoie on Lap 58.

From there, he quickly stretched out his lead and maintained that margin as the race remained green for the final 97 laps. Peña’s blistering pace left only the top 10 cars on the lead lap. He won by a margin of 4.633 seconds.

Brett Moffitt, who picked up the win in the season opener at Greenville, finished second and rookie Chase Elliott was third. Alex Bowman, the Sunoco Rookie of the Year leader, and overall points leader Max Gresham rounded out the top five.

Peña’s Revolution Racing teammate Darrell Wallace Jr. was sixth, followed by Dylan Presnell, Brandon Gdovic, Eddie MacDonald and Matt DiBenedetto.

The two previous wins for the 18-year-old Winchester, Va., driver came at his home state tracks of South Boston Speedway and Langley Speedway in Hampton. The pace of the race was slowed by just three cautions for 11 laps.

The Kevin Whitaker Chevrolet 140 will air on SPEED on Thursday, Sept. 15 at 7 p.m. ET.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series East will run its second-to-last event of the season Friday, Sept. 23 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H.
