Kyle Busch (Tundra No 51) won his second NASCAR Camping World truck race of the season at the Atlanta Motor Speedway on Saturday afternoon, the American Commercial Lines 200 and that, though he had lost second and third gear.

Busch, also known as «The Wild One» held off Kevin Harvick (Chevy No 2) crossing the finish line with a 0.123 second advantage.

Busch dropped back to ninth on the last restart ten laps from the end because of transmission problems but took the lead back four laps to the end, giving once again an incredible show. Todd Bodine (Tundra No 30), still looking for a sponsor, finished third.

Canadian J.R. Fitzpatrick (Chevrolet No 7) who started seventh ended up 22nd but is now fifth in the standings.

Quebec-born Mario Gosselin (Chevrolet no 12) from Florida finished 32nd. NASCAR Nationwide Series drivers were off this weekend.
