THRILL RIDE: After his wild ride at Talladega Superspeedway last Saturday, one would think that Kyle Busch would be avoiding anything that goes upside down. Roller coasters, however, are exactly what he will be promoting this weekend on his No. 5 Sta-Green/Busch Gardens/Lowe’s Chevrolet at Richmond (Va. ) International Raceway. Busch Gardens Europe is located in Williamsburg, Va., just one hour from RIR.

AWARD WINNER: Busch Gardens Europe has been voted the world’s “Most Beautiful Theme Park” for 16 consecutive years by the National Amusement Park Historical Association (NAPHA). The European-themed park also earned the award for “Best Landscaping” this year. Sta-Green is proud to be the “Official Lawn and Garden Partner” for Busch Gardens Europe. Sta-Green is found exclusively at Lowe’s.

FIRST VICTORY: Busch scored his first career NASCAR Busch Series victory in May 2004 at Richmond. The No. 5 Chevy dominated the race, leading 236 of a possible 250 laps.
