WEST ALLIS, Wis. — Carl Edwards made the most of his one-day Wisconsin getaway, winning Saturday’s NorthernTool.com 250 at the Milwaukee Mile after taking a brief break from his Sprint Cup duties in California.
SONOMA, Calif. (AP) — Kasey Kahne gave struggling Richard Petty Motorsports a much-needed boost Sunday, holding off Tony Stewart at Infineon Raceway to snap a 37-race winless streak.
Kahne was met in Victory Lane by Richard Petty, who made his first trip as a car owner in more than a decade. A Petty-owned car had not won a race since John Andretti’s victory at Martinsville in April, 1999.
“I feel just as good as he does,” said The King, clad in his trademark cowboy hat and sunglasses. “It’s great, man. It’s great.”
Chuck Trickle expects to be around Las Vegas Motor Speedway’s Bullring for many more years, but Saturday is the last time he expects to be driving a race car at the track.
