Denny Hamlin led all of two laps to get the NASCAR XFINITY Series win at Richmond. Brian Scott and Elliott Sadler were the only other two lap leaders.
Joey Logano completed the fantastic feat last week at Bristol, where he led every single lap in the NASCAR XFINITY Series race to get the win.
"It's been a great day obviously right from the very start. Our car had some great speed ad that's the key to victory. It's not tricks or anything like that. It's just you've got to have a fast car," Hamlin said. "They gave me something special tonight and we were able to dominate with it. You don't get these cars often."
This was Toyota's 100th victory in 281 races since they joined the NASCAR XFINITY Series in 2007.
This victory also showed that Hamlin rebounded after having to be replaced by Erik Jones in last week's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Bristol due to back pains. But Hamlin said he was "100 percent" and qualified on the pole to follow up with that.
Joey Logano finished 2nd, followed by Regan Smith, Erik Jones, and Chase Elliott to round out the Top-5.
