After suffering through some bad luck last year, Johnny Sauter is off to a strong start in 2013, having now won the first two races of the season. Sauter would take the lead from young Jeb Burton on a late race restart with 17 laps to go and never look back to take the victory.
At the end of Camping World Truck Series qualifying, it'd be Jeb Burton scoring his first career pole in his seventh career truck start. The 20-year-old lapped the track in 19.589 seconds, 96.666 mph.
It is not strange to see Jimmie Johnson at the front of the field at Martinsville Speedway so it should be no surprise that the driver of the No. 48 Lowe's Chevrolet won the pole, breaking the track record. Johnson clocked in a lap of 19.244 seconds, 98.400 mph, for the 30th pole of his career, first of 2013.
When the field took the white flag, everybody knew that it'd be a finish for the ages. After all, it was Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano battling side-by-side for the win. The pair had a run-in the previous week at Bristol Motor Speedway that included some words after the race.
While Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano refused to let each other win, it'd be Kyle Busch sneaking by them both to score the victory in the Auto Club 400 at Auto Club Speedway.
Kyle Busch won the 15th Annual NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) Royal Purple 300. This was Busch's sixth victory and 12th top-10 finish in 15 races at Auto Club Speedway.
At the end of final practice for the Nationwide Series, it'd be last year's rookie of the year Austin Dillon topping the charts with a lap of 40.728 seconds. Dillon is looking to rebound after finishing 11th last week at Bristol Motor Speedway. He finished fifth at Auto Club Speedway last year.
At the end of the first practice, it'd be Clint Bowyer topping the charts with a lap of 38.832 seconds (185.414 mph) in his No. 15 5-Hour Energy Toyota.
