Logano edges Kyle Busch

»  Comments | Post a Comment

Joey Logano cruised past Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Kyle Busch with 10 laps to go and held on to win Kentucky Speedway's Nationwide Series race for the second consecutive year.

Last year in the Meijer 300, Logano became the youngest winner in a Nationwide event. Saturday night, he made history as the first repeat winner in the track's signature NASCAR race.

Logano made the move past the series-leading Busch shortly after a red flag delayed the race for nearly nine minutes to clean debris off the track.

Most of the night, Busch dominated - at one point leading 104 consecutive laps.

TRUCKS: Colin Braun took advantage of an unintentional block by a lapped truck to pass Kyle Busch and race to his first trucks series win at Michigan International Speedway.

This race looked as if it belonged to Busch, the talented 24-year-old. He led 62 laps and appeared in total control before suddenly coming upon the slow-moving Norm Benning, two laps off the pace.

Busch slowed and ducked low on the banked 2-mile oval on Lap 77, driving nearly into the infield grass to get past Benning, while Braun went high around both Benning and Busch to grab the lead.
