Kurt Busch’s best finish at Rockingham Speedway in a NASCAR Sprint Cup race was second. Thanks to a dominating performance by Will Kimmel, Busch was not able to better that finish in the Frank Kimmel Street Stock National Polar Bear 150 at the track. Kimmel led 148 of 150 laps en route to his first victory at the track. Busch was the only other lap leader after going making the racing four wide to briefly move out front. “It was a little intimidating to look back and see the #22 (Busch) in the mirror,” said Kimmel from victory lane. Busch had to battle back in the race’s second stanza after contact with Kimmel forced him to make a pit stop to pull the fender off the left front tire. After restarting twelfth, Busch passed both lead lap and lap-down cars and capitalized on a caution to get on Kimmel’s rear bumper over the last 40 laps. But as the laps wound down, Kimmel was able to use traffic to pull away. J.D. Frey finished third, with Chad Hall finishing fourth and Cliff Gaumond rounding out the top-five.(Rockingham Speedway)(11-28-2010)
