Kyle Busch dominated the NASCAR Nationwide Series again, cruising to victory in the Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250 on Saturday.
Busch, who leads the series standings by 212 points (3,121-2,909) over Carl Edwards, won for the sixth time in 19 races season and also captured the 27th win of his career. The 27 wins ties him for fourth all-time in Nationwide wins with Jeff Burton.
“The car drove really well,” Busch said. “It was like a rocket ship. We just drove right up to the front.”
“We’ve really worked hard to improve on our short track program,” said Jason Ratcliff, Busch’s crew chief.
