Busch grabs another win third Craftsman Truck Series win of the season and his 17th overall in 2008
The scheduled 200-lap race was extended three laps after Erik Darnell spun off of Turn 2 on Lap 199 to bring out the last of a record 12 cautions and set up a green-white-checkered finish Busch's No. 51 Toyota struggled with vapor locking under previous restarts, but his final and most important restart on Lap 201 was flawless and he easily beat Todd Bodine

The last restart, it did it coming to the white . Fortunately we were able to get it there," Busch said of the vapor locking issues.

Busch led 145 laps and now has won in all three series -- Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Truck -- at the .533-mile track.

Johnny Benson, who was trying to become the first driver to win four consecutive Truck races, finished fourth behind polesitter Scott Speed. Rick Crawford was fifth.

T.J. Bell, Mike Skinner, Dennis Setzer, David Stremme and Ted Musgrave rounded out the top 10.
