HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) Kyle Busch won the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the second year in a row Saturday.
With a helping hand from lapped cars, pole-winner Busch was able to hold off Brad Keselowski by 0.606 seconds.
No one else was within 2 seconds of the winner.
Keselowski won the first 40-lap stage, Kevin Harvick took the next 40-lap phase and Busch was leading at the end - a promising start to a busy weekend in Atlanta, where he is competing in all three of NASCAR's top series. After celebrating in Victory Lane and a brief stop in the media center, he hustled back to pit road for the Truck Series race.
