“Man, this car was a rocket ship at the end,” he said.
Kurt Busch led the opening 50-lap segment of the race, but a later two-tire change cut into the performance of his Dodge. He brushed the wall twice, and his team made numerous changes during the 10-minute break between the third and final segments. FOXNews
