Kyle Busch made it five victories in a row Friday night when he won the WinStar World Casino 350 Camping World Truck Series race at Texas Motor Speedway.

Busch got the victory by holding off Matt Crafton on the final green-flag run. Craft finished about a second behind Busch.

The victory was the seventh of the season for Busch in the series and 16th of his truck career.

“That was cool,” Busch said. “What a Tundra tonight.

“Five in a row. That’s pretty sweet.”

Busch will be competing in all three of NASCAR’s top series at Texas this weekend. So, with the Friday victory, he will have a shot at a three-race sweep.

“It would be pretty awesome to get all three done,” he said.

Crafton’s runner-up finish allowed him to gain ground on point leader Ron Hornaday Jr., who finished third but about 10 seconds behind Busch.

Crafton said he might have had a truck good enough to catch Busch, but could not make a run as he was in a fuel conservation mode on the last run.

“I didn’t think I was going to make it,” Crafton said.

Todd Bodine finished fourth.
