Cole Custer's first stand as a NASCAR winner landed him in the stock car record book.
Custer became the youngest winner in a NASCAR national series race at 16, taking the checkered flag at New Hampshire in his seventh career Truck Series start.
Custer dominated early and pulled away late off the final restart Saturday to win at 16 years, 7 months, 28 days. He set a track record of 131.897 mph to win the pole and led 148 of the 175 laps for his fifth top-10 of the season.
''This is a pretty special race for our team,'' Custer said. ''I just love this track. The fans are awesome. It was always one of my favorite tracks growing up. I can't believe I get to come here and go to Victory Lane.''
