Busch looking to lock up Natinowide owners championship:

Back-to-back series championships may not necessarily elevate a racing team to dynasty status, but a strong case can be made if the number reaches three in a row. Kyle Busch and the #18 Z-Line Designs/BJ’s Wholesale Club Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing are one race away from clinching JGR’s third consecutive NASCAR Nationwide Series owner’s championship as they head to Homestead-Miami Speedway for Saturday’s season-ending Ford 300. After an all-time Nationwide Series-record 12 victories among its 21 top-five and 27 top-10 finishes through the season’s first 34 events, the No. 18 JGR Toyota heads to Homestead with a 41-point lead in the owner’s championship over the second-place #22 Penske Racing Dodge of Penske Racing. Brad Keselowski, who drives the #22 Dodge full-time, clinched the driver’s title two weekends ago at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, but Busch and JGR are looking for a three-peat in the owner’s race on the 1.5-mile oval on Saturday.(JGR)(11-16-2010)
