NASCAR Cup Series

NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Kyle Busch really wanted a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series victory at Michigan International Speedway.

Kyle Busch won the Pure Michigan 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) race at Michigan International Speedway today.

Regan Smith poured it on during the green-white-checkered overtime finish, picking up seven spots in track position to give Furniture Row Racing a 13th-place finish in Sunday's Pure Michigan 400 Sprint Cup race at Michigan International Speedway.

BRAD KESELOWSKI (No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger R/T) Finished 3rd “We were decent today, about a fifth to 10th-place car. Paul (Wolfe, crew chief) and the guys did a great job making the right pit calls and executing."

Jimmie Johnson came within one spot of adding Michigan International Speedway (MIS) to his list of tracks at which he has captured a victory.

HOW ABOUT A CAREER BEST AT MICHIGAN TODAY, TALK ABOUT RACING KYLE (BUSCH) AND EVERYBODY ELSE TODAY. "Yeah, great finish for the Lowe's team. Very proud of the effort and can't thank the employees of Lowe's enough for their support and sticking by this race team over the years."

The pit crew of the No. 29 Budweiser Chevrolet of Kevin Harvick and Richard Childress Racing has earned second-quarter honors in the 2011 Mechanix Wear Most Valuable Pit Crew Award competition, taking home the $5,000 quarterly prize - a reward that could buy several rounds of Budweisers to celebrate.

Kyle Busch held off Jimmie Johnson in a green-white-checkered finish at Michigan International Speedway on Sunday.

GREG BIFFLE, No. 16 3M Ford Fusion (Finished 20th) "I don't know what happened. I am not sure. I have a feeling we kinda got a bum set of tires and then we got off on our adjustments."

With his win in Sunday's Pure Michigan 400, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Kyle Busch is qualified to be a finalist for a chance to earn a $3 million payout in the Sprint Summer Showdown presented by HTC EVOT 3D.
