Paul Menard wins Ollie's 250

By Joey Gucciardo, UNB! Staff Member | 4:20 PM E.T.


[:GETTY IMAGES:]

In a race where many people led, Paul Menard wasn't just lucky, he was also good.

With the race winding down, Joey Logano went off the pace costing him the win. Then, that allowed Paul to take the win at Michigan International Speedway. Logano had a cut tire, and pit with 4 laps to go.

This was Menard's first NASCAR Nationwide Series start of 2014, and he took complete advantage of it.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., who started the race in the JR Motorsports eBay Chevrolet, finished third.

Long Pond, PA--- With less than 10 laps to go, Brad Keselowski lost a lot of momentun trying to lap Danica Patrick.

"We were pretty equal," Keselowski told TNT. "But Dale made the right move at the end."

Dale Earnhardt Jr. who started 8th took advantage of Keselowski's momentum loss, and went on to win the race.

Early in the race, a caution was thrown after there was smoke in Turn 3, no, not Tony Stewart, but the smoke possibly came from pre-race fireworks.

On the second to last restart, Jimmie Johnson most likely spun his tires, and that cost Johnson the win.

So now, there are two Hendrick Motorsports drivers are locked in the chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. 

Use the #ChaseForTheCup2014 and tel us who will win this year's chase!!!!

Dover, DE--- LOOK OUT FANS!!!!! The 48 just won two races in a row at Dover, and you better watch out at Pocono next weekend. Pocono is one of Johnson's best tracks.

Kyle Busch wrecked early to end his chances of the triple sweep. Ricky Strnhouse JR. had a bad crash with Greg Biffle and AJ Allnendinger. Stenhouse's car was destroyed.

At one point, a 20 minute red flag was thrown after Jamie McMurray hit a piece of concrete sticking out the ground. Brad Keselowski finished second. On the last caution with 7 laps to go, Clint Bowyer took two tires and fuel, putting him out front. Jimmie Johnson, and a few others, quickly got around him.

Kyle Busch wins Buckle Up 250 at Dover International Speedway

By Joey Gucciardo | 5:15 PM E.T.

This is definitely 100% a time loop, as Kyle Busch goes for the sweep this weekend.

Having done the sweep at Bristol Motor Speedway in 2010, Kyle Busch looks to do it again at Dover in 2014. The sweep is when you win the Truck, Nationwide, and Sprint Cup races in one weekend.

Busch crushed the Truck series competition in yesterday's Lucas Oil 200, and looks to win tomorrow's FedEx 400 Benefiting Autism Speaks.
