| HAMPTON, Ga. -- One year after his short NASCAR Winston Cup career hit "my lowest point," Kurt Busch won his second straight race Sunday when rain cut the NAPA 500 77 laps short at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Busch, who has scored three victories in 75 Winston Cup starts but failed to qualify for last fall's NAPA 500, won last weekend at Martinsville Speedway. He took his first victory last spring at Bristol Motor Speedway in the No. 97 Rubbermaid Ford.
Busch, a Las Vegas native, was leading at lap 242 when the race's fifth caution flew, for rain. Six laps later, with the condition of the track deteriorating too badly to be dried, the race was checkered.
Joe Nemechek, Dale Jarrett, Winston Cup point leader Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Jr. followed Busch at the finish.
