Capitalizing on Kevin Harvick’s attempt to stretch his gas mileage beyond the capacity of his fuel cell, Kyle Busch won his sixth Nationwide Series race of the season Saturday night and his first at Gateway International Raceway.

In a 19-lap green-flag run to the finish, Busch held off Reed Sorenson to win the Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250 at the 1.25-mile racetrack. The victory was Busch’s 27th in the series, tying him with Jeff Burton for fourth place on the career win list. NASCAR.com

The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has now won at 17 different tracks on NASCAR’s second-tier series. He also extended his streak of finishing first or second to seven races.

“That’s pretty cool,” Busch said. “It goes back to this team. They gave me a great car all weekend long.”

“I couldn’t catch him,” Sorenson said. “During the last run, I did all I could do.”

Carl Edwards finished third, followed by Mike Bliss and Brad Coleman, who drove the No.20 car for JGR.

Stephen Leicht, Michael Annett, Brad Keselowski, the pole sitter, Jason Keller and Erik Darnell completed the top-10.  MiamiHerald.com
