    Even Kyle Busch acknowledged that his landmark victory in Friday's NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Chicagoland Speedway probably wouldn't have happened if not for Brad Keselowski's costly mistake.

    With Joey Logano out front and an overtime restart looming, Keselowski ran out of gas just before the green flag fell. Busch was able to move closer to Logano and then pounced on the restart and held on for the win.

    "I don't think I would have had a shot to win the race, because it was going to take too much to get alongside Joey had the restart gone with Keselowski in place," Busch said.

    It was Busch's 37th victory in NASCAR's second-tier series, moving him into sole possession of second place in the series' career wins list. Only Mark Martin has more, with 48.
