Sharpie Professional 250 - Bristol Motor Speedway

Truex Wins First Busch Race at Bristol
Martin Truex Jr. claimed his first victory in the Busch series on a wild and wooly Saturday afternoon at Bristol Motor Speedway. In other words it was typical Bristol. In a race that featured wrecks, fiery tempers, a little confusion, and a few heated confrontations, Truex was able to emerge victorious. The win for Truex comes in his 20th series start. The event ended under caution, with Truex at the front of the field and Mike Bliss in second place but Bliss, thinking the race was over, hit pit road with one lap to go and dropped back to 17th in the finishing order. Kevin Harvick inherited the runner-up position and built on his point lead, now holding a 41-point advantage over David Green. Rookie Kyle Busch finished third in his first Bristol start, followed by pole sitter Greg Biffle in fourth.
