Görünen
o ki, Kyle Busch, veledroma benzeyen .533 millik Nascar'ın en
kısa
pisti Bristol'ün tartışmasız yeni kralı ve Mr. Bristol ünvanını
hakkediyor. SprintCup'ın
sürücüleri en zorlayan pistleri listesinde ''Pislik Sevgili'' Darlinton
ile birlikte anılan Bristol'de üstüste 5. yarışını kazanmak kolay
değil. Zaten yarış başlarken, çoğu kişi bu dönme dolap gibi yerde Kyle
Busch yine kazanır diye düşünüyordu; Jeff Byrd 500'ün 429. turundaki
lastik taktiği ve pitte lider Carl Edwards'ı geçmesi sayesinde
''kendisine güvenenlerin'' yüzünü kara çıkartmadı.
