Kyle Busch already had something to celebrate Friday night with WinStar World Casino 350k victory. This afternoon, he added to what could be a very memorable three-day run at Texas Motor Speedway.

Busch took another step toward the weekend sweep here when he won the NASCAR Nationwide Series O’Reilly Challenge this afternoon. Busch led 179 of the 200 laps to claim his fourth consecutive Nationwide Series victory at TMS. It was also Busch’s eighth victory this season.  Fort Worth Star Telegram

“People would get tired of buying tickets to the Kyle Busch show, I guess,” he said. “That’s two, one more to go. ... If luck is on our side and we play it smart, we could come out of here 3-for-3. That would be pretty special.”

Busch has now won five Nationwide Series races at TMS, and four in a row overall at the track.

Busch scored the maximum 195 points in the win and has a 272-point lead over Carl Edwards. He can wrap up his first Nationwide championship by scoring 118 points in Phoenix.

Casey Mears finished second, subbing for Jeff Burton in the No. 29 Holiday Inn car. Jason Leffler started and finished third, polesitter Matt Kenseth was fourth and Brad Keselowski came in fifth. ESPN
