The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series points leader dominated the Kroger 200 at O’Reilly Raceway Park, leading 197 of 200 laps to cruise to his sixth Nationwide win of the year.
The victory makes 15 for Busch on the season, including seven in the Sprint Cup Series and two in the Craftsman Truck Series. That breaks Kevin Harvick’s record of 14 wins across all three series set in 2006.
After NASCAR increased the spacers and took some horsepower from Toyota earlier in the week, Toyota, Joe Gibbs Racing and Kyle Busch answered the move by dominating Saturday night’s Nationwide race at O’Reilly Raceway Park.
Polesitter Colin Braun finished second on Saturday, and Mike Bliss moved up from 17th to finish third. Carl Edwards was three laps down early in the race, but moved to the lead lap toward the end with the help of some cautions and finished 11th.
