Busch led 235 of the 400 laps at the ¾ mile track including the last 85 for his 21st career victory and second this season. The fuel strategy was so close, Busch couldn’t finish his victory burn-out. He had to be pushed to victory lane.

April 17, 2011 You couldn’t have asked for a better race at any level at any track.

But when the dust all settled a video review showed it was Jimmie Johnson who won the Aaron’s 499 at Talladega edging Clint Bowyer by 0.002 of a second – that’s less than a foot.

It’s also his fifth career Cup win at Bristol, tying him with his older brother Kurt who also has five career victories at Bristol.
March 18, 2011 After a disappointing 38th-place finish last at Vegas, Kyle Busch looks to rebound at Bristol this weekend where he's had a lot of success in recent years. Busch was the points leader heading into Vegas, but dropped to 14th when he left.
It was just last August at Bristol when Kyle became the first driver to win all three of NASCAR's national touring series races in the same weekend.
