Kyle Busch is enjoying a dominant Nationwide season, with six victories in the nine races he entered this year. He could pull off the rare triple-header sweep this weekend by winning the Camping Truck, Nationwide and Sprint Cup races at Dover. Busch already took the checkered flag in the truck race and is starting in third place on Saturday, so he’s in a good starting position for the second leg.
