Sunday’s Pocono 400 at Pocono Raceway will serve as the culmination of a unique contest run by #18-Kyle Busch’s primary backer M&M’s. Fans last month had the opportunity to visit the M&M’s Racing Facebook page (www.facebook.com/mmsracing) and share which M&M’s flavor they would ‘draft’ – M&M’s Peanut, M&M’s Peanut Butter, or M&M’s Pretzel. The top vote-getter was M&M’s Peanut Butter, which as a result will be the colorful scheme that will adorn the #18 Toyota this weekend at Pocono for the second consecutive weekend. The M&M’s Peanut Butter scheme made its season debut last weekend at Dover. There are only three race tracks where Busch has yet to win in any of NASCAR’s top three divisions (Sprint Cup, Nationwide, Camping World Truck). Left on that list – Martinsville Speedway, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and Pocono Raceway, the site of Sunday’s Pocono 400 Sprint Cup Series race. Of the 28 tracks that will host NASCAR’s top three divisions in 2014, Busch has competed at every circuit but Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, and he has won at 25 of them. Busch has won at 17 of the 23 tracks at which the Sprint Cup Series competes. The only six tracks Busch has failed to reach victory lane in the Sprint Cup Series are: Martinsville, Charlotte, Kansas, Indianapolis, Homestead and Pocono.(JGR/TSC), see image of the M&M’s Peanut Butter scheme on the #18 Team Schemes page.(6-5-2014)
