DOVER, Del. (AP) — Kyle Busch pulled away in the final laps to win the NASCAR Truck Series race on Friday at Dover International Speedway.

Busch won in the series for the second straight race following his victory at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Matt Crafton was second and Ryan Blaney third. Chase Elliott and Darrell Wallace Jr. rounded out the top five.

The 19-year-old Wallace became the youngest pole winner in series history.

Busch’s victory in Charlotte in the No. 51 Toyota snapped a seven-race drought. He’s attempting this weekend to win a NASCAR tripleheader. Busch also is entered in Saturday’s Nationwide Series race and Sunday’s Sprint Cup race.

Busch took a bow with the checkered flag on the mile concrete track. He’s second in series history with 32 career victories.
