Busch looking for fifth consecutive national series win

Tue 31st, August 2010

Sparta, KY (Sports Network) - Series: NASCAR Camping World Truck. Date: Friday, September 3. Race: The Built Ford Tough 225. Site: Kentucky Speedway. Track: 1.5-mile tri-oval. Start time: 8:00 p.m. (et). Laps: 150. Miles: 225. 2009 winner: Ron Hornaday Jr. Television: SPEED. Radio: Motor Racing Network(MRN)/SIRIUS NASCAR Radio.

Kyle Busch will try to continue his winning ways in NASCAR this Friday at Kentucky Speedway. Busch not only will attempt to win his fifth consecutive national touring series race, but also claim his 80th overall victory in NASCAR's three big leagues.

At Bristol, Busch became the first driver to win the Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series races during the same week. Last Friday, he claimed his fourth straight victory by taking the truck race at Chicagoland.

"For me, to carry the momentum from last week means a lot, but now we'd like to carry it on into [this] weekend going to Kentucky," Busch said. "We know that will be a tough race for us. [Ron] Hornaday [Jr.] is really strong there. I know [Mike] Skinner has been fast there before with Eric [Phillips] being his crew chief. I'm sure [Todd] Bodine will be tough to beat. It should be fun, and hopefully we can go for five in a row before we head to Atlanta."

Phillips now serves as Busch's crew chief at Kyle Busch Motorsports.

Busch has competed in just one truck race at Kentucky, with a sixth-place finish in 2008. He is the only Sprint Cup regular entered for this event.

Last year at Kentucky, Hornaday became the first repeat winner at the 1.5-mile track. He took the lead from Aric Almirola after a restart with 18 laps to go, and then held off Skinner at the finish by 0.14 seconds. Hornaday also won here in 2006.

"I'm looking forward to going back to Kentucky," Hornaday said. "We had a surprising win there last year. I had never really run too well there, even though I had one win. It had never been a track where I was very successful. Everything went our way last year, and I'm hoping for the same result this year."

After finishing second at Chicagoland, Todd Bodine widened his points lead to 236 over Almirola. Eight races remain this season.

Thirty-eight teams are on the preliminary entry list for The Built Ford Tough 225.
