The last time NASCAR was at the Bristol Motor Speedway, back in August of 2010, it was the Kyle Busch show as he swept all three top series races in the same weekend.
Carl Edwards was fastest in the first practice session on Friday and backup it up by capturing the pole for Sunday’s Jeff Byrd 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway with a lap of 128.014mph.
Even with a restart with less than five laps to go, no one could catch the 18 of Kahne and he would go on to capture the win. It was the third straight race that a driver not running for points in the CWTS has won.
On the final round of pit stops under green, Carl Edwards took two tires and that was the call of the race as he went on to win Sunday's Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Mark Martin, driving the No. 32 Dollar General for Turner Motorsports for the first time, not only was lucky with his fuel mileage but also took advantage of the bad luck of Brad Keselowski.
Jeff Gordon dominated Sunday’s Subway Fresh Fit 500 at Phoenix International Raceway by leading 138 of the 312 laps run. This was Gordon’s first Sprint Cup Series win since April 5, 2009 at Texas Motor Speedway.
Kyle Busch dominated from the pole to the finish in Saturday’s Bashas' Supermarkets 200 at Phoenix International Raceway. Busch lead all of the 200 laps run.
Blaney settled into third and maintained his position to the checkered flag for another strong finish and valuable points day at the Midwest short track.
Josh Berry and the No. 21 Menards/Masterforce Tools team turned a fast Ford Mustang Dark Horse and a late two-tire strategy call into a fourth-place finish in Sunday’s Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway.
