Homestead News and Notes:

Martin Truex Jr. (No. 8 Bass Pro Shops Chevrolet) clinched the 2004 NASCAR Busch Series championship last week at Darlington after a season-long battle with Kyle Busch (No. 5 Lowes Chevrolet). But that doesnt mean there is a lack of drama connected to the finale. There is still a race to be won Saturday at Homestead-Miami Speedway, along with final places in the Top 10 to be secured.
