Ryan Newman, Kurt Busch Are Shake N’ Bake

By Chris Mottram
Your 2008 Daytona 500 winner is Ryan Newman, who held off Kyle Busch (who led the majority of the race and had the fastest car) with the help of Kyle’s brother, Kurt, who pushed his teammate to the win:

Here are the top ten finishers, from first to tenth:
Ryan Newman ⇥
Kurt Busch ⇥
Tony Stewart ⇥
Kyle Busch ⇥
Reed Sorenson ⇥
Elliott Sadler ⇥
Kasey Kahne ⇥
Robby Gordon ⇥
Dale Earnhardt Jr. ⇥
Greg Biffle
