Final Turn: Who was more superb, Busch or Kenseth?

Kyle Busch made history this past weekend at Fontana. Matt Kenseth linked his name to the record book, as well. But which was better? Let's take a closer look.

On Saturday, Busch became the first driver in NASCAR to win two touring events on the same day. And he did so in rather convincing fashion.

Relive history

Kyle Busch wins Nationwide and Truck races on the same day.

Yes, he trailed Colin Braun inside the final 10 laps of the Camping World Truck Series race after a pit stop. But Busch quickly reclaimed the lead and pulled away to more than a 9-second win. In all, he led 95 of 100 laps and all but two of the 92 laps run under green. Dominant. (read more)

Yes, he was forced to make the most of a restart in the Nationwide Series nightcap after Carl Edwards won the race off pit road during the final stop. Busch had not only Edwards to contend with, but Kevin Harvick also. He won the three-wide battle and completed the daily double. In all, he led 143 of 150 laps and at one point led by more than 11 seconds. Dominant. (read more)

On Sunday, Kenseth became just the fifth driver in the Cup Series to open the season with consecutive victories, joining Marvin Panch, Bob Welborn, David Pearson and Jeff Gordon.

Yes, his victory in the Daytona 500 was rain-shortened. He led only seven laps and just one under green, the last one before rain began to pelt the track. But he outlasted Gordon at Auto Club Speedway, leading the final 38 laps, all but two under green. In all, he led a race-high 84 laps. (read more)

Winless in 2008, not even the pessimistic Kenseth can deny his team's strong start to 2009, and his place in history. (watch video)

So, again, which driver had the better weekend?

Sure, Busch accomplished something no other driver has, but there are fewer trucks and the competition in the Nationwide Series is mostly relegated to the handful of Cup regulars in any particular race.

Sure, Kenseth won consecutive races on NASCAR's premier circuit, but that's a feat that was accomplished six times last year; he just happened to do it at the beginning of the season, which hadn't been done since 1997.

We leave it up to you. Before you decide remember Busch finished third in the Cup race, in case that makes any difference.
