LOUDON, N.H. -- Matt Kenseth couldn't beat the field with speed, so he did it with strategy Saturday in the crash-filled NASCAR Busch Series race at New Hampshire International Speedway.

The reigning Nextel Cup champion, making only his seventh Busch start of 2004, came up with his second win of the season and 16th of his career in the Siemens 200.

"We had a good car, but it wasn't good enough to pass everybody," said Kenseth, who started 21st in the 43-car field. "The team had to come up with a good pit strategy to get by some of those guys. We made an early stop to get track position and it put us in position where we could get past those last four or five guys."

Runner-up Tim Fedewa tried hard to overtake Kenseth, moving alongside the leader on a restart with 13 laps to go. But Kenseth, with the outside position, was able to hold off the challenge and eventually pulled away, winning by 1.51 seconds -- about six car-lengths.  More
