NASCAR trifecta in reach for Kyle Bush at Texas
By STEPHEN HAWKINS
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - Kyle Busch keeps extending streaks at
Texas in search of a NASCAR first.
Busch won his fourth consecutive Nationwide Series race at the
1 1/2-mile, high-banked track Saturday, a dominating victory a day
after winning his fifth truck race in a row this season.
He will try to complete an unprecedented trifecta Sunday and
become the first driver ever to win all three of NASCAR's national
series on the same weekend.
After taking the lead on the 11th of 200 laps, when he swung
around polesitter Matt Kenseth in the first turn, Busch went on to
win by 3.154 seconds over Casey Mears.
Busch is 0-for-9 in Sprint Cup races at Texas, where finished
18th in April.
