The only thing that slowed Kyle Busch down on Saturday was running in traffic.
Busch easily held off Austin Dillon to win the F.W. Webb 175 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H., his third consecutive win at the track and sixth Truck Series victory of the season. TheNewsTribune.com
Dillon’s second-place run allowed him to take over the points lead. He holds a two-point advantage over James Buescher, who finished one lap down in seventh. Dillon won last week’s race at Chicagoland Speedway.
Kevin Harvick finished third, followed by Hornaday Jr., Johnny Sauter and Matt Crafton. The top-six drivers were the only ones who finished on the lead lap.
Over the closing laps, Dillon kept the big picture in mind—his quest for the series championship.
“I wish we could have come out a little closer to him off pit road,” Dillon said. “I lost a little time getting onto pit road, and that hurt us. But we came out leading the points with six [races] to go. We’ll focus on that, and we’re happy with this finish.”
