A monster of a performance left Joey Logano in victory lane Saturday afternoon at Dover. Pit strategy filled the air throughout the day and Logano’s turned out to be the winning one. It was another battle of the No.22 car and No.54 car as many Nationwide Series races have been this season and for the second straight week, it was the No.22 car winning the fight.

Logano started on the pole and led until Kyle Busch took over the top spot on lap 19. A Brian Scott spin on lap 26 started the strategy frenzy. Most cars stayed out while some pitted under the yellow, but another caution less than ten laps later brought in most of the cars. Logano pitted under the second caution while Kyle Busch stayed out and remained the leader.

Busch didn’t pit until lap 87. He would go a lap down, but he eventually returned to the lead only to have the cycle repeated

Logano made the final pass for the lead with 59 laps remaining and cruised into the history books. This was his fourth straight Nationwide Series victory at Dover, setting a record. Dover is one of his best tracks and he proved why once again during the race.
