Kyle Busch was fastest out of the pits on the opening stop and on the track the rest of the night, leading the final 107 laps to win a wreck-filled NASCAR trucks race at Phoenix International Raceway on Friday.
Busch beat polesitter Clint Bowyer to the checkered flag by .291 seconds, as Bowyer tightened the margin on the final lap.
Ron Hornaday Jr. was third, followed by Johnny Sauter and Austin Dillon.
Kyle Busch is now one of the dominant drivers in each of the three tiers of NASCAR competition, and is one of the reasons NASCAR has decided to only allow drivers to accumulate points in one tier for 2011.
Matt Crafton takes the lead in the point standings after the Lucas Oil 150 at Phoenix.
Crafton, the No. 88 Chevrolet Silverado driver, finished 7th in the event and moved up five spots to take over the lead in the 2011 championship standings by 1 points over Clay Rogers. Rogers, who was the leader going into the event, finished 16th in the race.
