Toyota Racing Weekend Recap

NASCAR® Nationwide Series™ --  Kyle Three-Peats at Texas Race

Kyle Busch won his third straight NASCAR® Nationwide Series™ (NNS) race at Texas Motor Speedway on Saturday. Busch started on the pole in the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 18 NOS Energy Drink Toyota Camry and steadily built his lead throughout the early portion of the event. Fighting a loose condition for the majority of the race, Busch exchanged the lead with Jeff Burton near the race’s midpoint. The 23-year-old Las Vegas native kept the car underneath him to take the lead back for good on lap 106, crossing the finish line 1.447 seconds ahead of eventual runner-up Tony Stewart.

NASCAR® Sprint Cup Series™

Four Toyota Camry drivers recorded top-20 finishes in Sunday’s NASCAR® Sprint Cup Series™ (NSCS) race at the 1.5-mile track facility. David Reutimann was the highest-finishing Camry driver, posting an 11th-place result in Michael Waltrip Racing’s (MWR) No. 00 Aaron’s Dream Machine Toyota. Reutimann started on the pole -- the second of his NSCS career -- and led 40 laps early in the 334-lap, 500-mile event won by Jeff Gordon.

Denny Hamlin leads at Martinsville

Toyota Racing Weekend Recap

NASCAR® -- CUP CAMRYS, TUNDRAS CLOSE TO A PAIR OF MARTINSVILLE WINS

Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch were both victims of short-track bump-and-run maneuvers at Virginia's Martinsville Speedway.

In Sunday's race, Hamlin was denied defending his 2008 NASCAR® Sprint Cup Series™ (NSCS) victory at the track when Jimmie Johnson bumped and then passed him on lap 485 of the 500-lap race. Hamlin wound up finishing second in his No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing FedEx Toyota Camry.

In Monday's postponed NASCAR® Camping World Truck Series™ (NCWTS) race, Busch's run for the win was denied when eventual race-winner Kevin Harvick nudged him on lap 241. The damage sustained by the contact with Harvick caused a tire rub on Busch's No. 51 Miccosukee Resort Tundra, and a series of unfortunate events relegated Busch to a 17th-place finish.

For a complete recap and results from both races, please visit Toyota Racing.


NHRA -- Al-ANABI DUO JUST MISS OUT ON HOUSTON FINAL

In this weekend's NHRA event in Baytown, Texas, Del Worsham seemed destined for his first final-round appearance with the new Al-Anabi/Alan Johnson Racing Toyota Funny Car team. But in his semifinal with Ashley Force Hood -- a rematch of last year's final -- the defending race champion was forced to lift off after smoking his tires.
