Two Races, Three Winners
The first winner: Kyle Larson took home his First NASCAR series win in the TreatMyClots.com 300, holding off Kyle Busch.
The second winner: Kyle Busch. Sunday was a bit of role reversal with Busch holding off Sprint Cup rookie during a Green-White-Checker finish during the Auto Club 400.
The third winner – the sellout crowd at Auto Club Speedway. Great racing despite tire problems. It will be interesting to see how things are resolved before next year’s race at Auto Club.
