It was not an easy task for Kyle Busch (Camry No 18) but he finally won his first ever Nationwide race in Loudon, the Camping World 200 presented by Turtle Wax at the one-mile New Hampshire Motor Speedway. He did so by passing his teammate Joey Logano (Camry No 20) near the end of the race.

Carl Edwards (Ford No 60) seemed poised to win the race but a miscue in the pits sent him back ninth in the race as he was leading before the pits. He nonetheless finished sixth keeping him in second in the chase for the Nationwide Championship. He is now 162 points behind leader Busch.

Brad Keselowski (Chevy No 88) finished third after passing Mike Bliss (Chevy No 1) a few laps to the end. Bliss finished fourth.

Kevin Harvick (Chevy No 33) came in fifth taking advantage of a slight contact between Cup teammates Scott Speed (Camry No 99) and Brian Vickers (Camry No 32) during the last lap of the race.

Next week, on Friday evening, the Nationwide drivers will race the world famous Daytona International Speedway.
