Kyle Busch captured a little bit of history Monday when he won the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Texas Motor Speedway, his fifth straight Nationwide win here.

Busch’s 33rd career Nationwide win capped a banner day for Joe Gibbs Racing as Denny Hamlin won the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at the track earlier in the day.

The race was ran two days after its original scheduled date due to rains that pushed the race back from Saturday to Monday.

Reed Sorenson finished third and rounding out the top-five finishers was Brad Keselowski and Kevin Harvick. AHN

“Once you figure it out here, you have to stick with it. Something clicked in 2007 here, and I’ve used it ever since,” Busch said. “I can’t let the secret out of the bag for sure. Joey learned a little bit about it. I told him a little of what I know. Once he pieces the other 20 percent to that, he’s going to be hard to beat too.”

Busch led four times, regaining the lead for good with 24 laps left when he drove under his teammate on the backstretch only three laps after the final restart.

“Apparently he has this place figured out,” Logano said. “I felt like this is the best I’ve ever been here by far. ... I feel like we gave him a run for his money.” NASCAR.com
