There is no stopping Kyle Busch this season. The only thing that can slow him down is the muddy grass in the infield as he tries to do burnouts.
Busch beat defending champion Jimmie Johnson on a two lap shootout to win his seventh race of the season. He is only six races away from beating Jeff Gordon’s record of thirteen wins in a season.
Coming in third was Kevin Harvick with a solid run that placed him back in the Top 12 for the chase. Harvick’s return to the Top 12 knocked out his teammate, Clint Bowyer, who finished in 22nd position tonight.
Greg Biffle finished fourth with Busch’s teammate, Tony Stewart, finishing in fifth.
The Sprint Cup Series will take a week off and return to Indianapolis the following weekend for the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard.
Check out the video of Kyle discribing his move around Jimmie Johnson to win the race.
