Joey Logano wins the 300-mile race, pulling away from Brian Vickers over the final two laps to pick up his fifth series win of the year, and second in a row.
Carl Edwards finished third and pulled within 155 points of series leader Kyle Busch, who exited his No. 18 Toyota early in the race because of a fever.
Busch, who had won two straight Nationwide races at California, has been fighting flulike symptoms the last few days but tried to make a go of it. He qualified second and quickly zoomed to the lead but feared he was getting too hot.
“When I get in the car and I get hot, I start not being able to see exactly straight,” Busch said. “The car was really good though. ... (but) I didn’t feel it was in my best interest or the team’s best interest to win this race or keep going. I probably could have.” The Associated Press
