AUG 21ST, 2010 | ELECTRIC’S KYLE BUSCH DOES THE HAT TRICK AND MAKES HISTORY!
Electric’s Kyle Busch scored the elusive hat trick at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway by winning Saturday’s Irwin Tools Night Race NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event. The 25 year old swept all three of the NASCAR races at the .533-mile oval, winning the Camping World Truck Series race Wednesday night and the Nationwide Series race Friday night before wheeling his No. 18 Doublemint Toyota to victory in Saturday night’s Sprint Cup race.
“It means a lot,” said Busch after notching his 19th career Sprint Cup victory. “I’m out of breath. I’ve been screaming the whole time. Normally you take your time to get your breath back, but I used it all up. What a great race car.” Kyle went on to thank his crew for their flawless pit stops all night saying, “these guys are awesome.”
Busch led four times for a race high 282 laps in Saturday night’s race, and coupled with his victories in the Nationwide and Truck Series events, the Las Vegas native led 514 of a possible 956 laps throughout the weekend.
“It’s pretty cool because when you come so close and then don’t get it, it’s pretty frustrating,” said Busch, who now has 78 victories across NASCAR’s top three divisions. “I mean, last year we won the truck race and were leading the Nationwide race and we got crashed out, and then we ended up winning the Cup race. So this is probably a year delayed. I’m just real appreciative of what was able to happen tonight. It’s cool to be able to put it all together and win all three races.”
With 24 of 36 races in the books, Kyle bumped up five spots to 3rd place overall with only two races remaining before the Chase.
The Sprint Cup Series takes a rare weekend off before returning to action at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the September 5 Emory Healthcare 500. The race starts at 4:30pm PST on ESPN.
