07/09/2010 - Joliet, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch had the dominant car, but needed a little bit of luck at the end to win Friday's Dollar General 300 Nationwide Series race at Chicagoland Speedway.
Despite leading a race-high 110 laps, Busch had to overcome a penalty for speeding on pit road early in the 300-mile race. Busch ran eighth after his penalty, but reclaimed the lead shortly after a restart on lap 81.
Joey Logano passed his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate and took the lead for the first time just after a restart with 53 laps remaining.
Trevor Bayne's late-race accident in the closing laps setup a green-white- checkered finish. Busch held the third spot for the restart, but quickly grabbed second when points leader Brad Keselowski ran out of fuel. Busch then chased down Logano and made the winning pass with less than two laps to go.
"I knew I couldn't spin my tires, and I knew I couldn't let him force me too high, because it was real dirty, and that's how I lost the lead to Joey earlier the first time," Busch said.
Just after Busch took the white flag for the final lap, a six-car wreck occurred on the frontstretch, with Busch winning the race under caution.
"We didn't have the track position when it mattered, and the car got really tight on us," Busch said. "[The team] never gave up. They knew I had it in me. I didn't think I had it in me."
Busch captured his seventh victory of the season and the 37th of his Nationwide career, which moved him into sole possession of second on the series' all-time race winners list. He surpassed Kevin Harvick, who started on the pole and finished seventh in this race.
"To win as many as we've won and be successful as JGR has been, it's fun every week," he said. "It's always cool to come out here and put on a good show."
Busch also won at Chicagoland in 2008. He joins Harvick as the only repeat race winners here.
Logano won last year's race at Chicagoland, but came up short on his bid for a second consecutive victory at the one-and-a-half-mile track.
"Kyle did a good job," Logano said. "He did what he was supposed to do. He drove me into the turn and got me loose. They beat me. I'm embarrassed more than anything else."
Rookie Brian Scott finished a career-best third, with David Reutimann and Jason Leffler rounding out the top-five.
While Keselowski wound up 21st, Carl Edwards finished sixth and trimmed 50 points from Keselowski's lead. Keselowski now holds a 227-point advantage over Edwards.
Danica Patrick, making her fifth Nationwide start, finished two laps behind in 24th.
"I definitely learned a lot," Patrick said. "It was really nice to run a clean race with no accidents."
Patrick has competed in five IndyCar races at Chicagoland, but this was her first in a stock car event here.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
