NASCAR driver Kyle Busch celebrates after winning the Aaron's 499. Busch failed to finish four of his previous six times at the Talladega track, but won convincingly Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala.

Talladega, Ala. ? This time, the crash happened behind Kyle Busch. Instead of leaving Talladega Superspeedway with a smashed-up car, he drove into Victory Lane.

The kid who couldn’t conquer Talladega finally won at the harrowing track Sunday, and in this breakout season for Busch, it was only fitting that he coasted to the victory.

Busch came back from a lap down for his first victory at Talladega, which was won under caution when a 13-car accident brought out the yellow flag on the final lap. It froze the field and allowed Busch to make his way slowly across the finish line – a rare completion considering his past history at this track.

In six previous Cup races, Busch failed to finish four times and wrecked out of both events last season. His accident in last spring’s Cup race was so hard, he cracked his head-and-neck restraint while finishing 37th. And his wreck in the fall officially ended his championship hopes.

“I don’t think I’ve finished one here without wrecking, or at least without a torn-up car,” Busch said. “Today means a whole lot.”

But this year, he can’t seem to do anything wrong. His victory was his second Sprint Cup win of the year and seventh spanning all three of NASCAR’s top series.

Juan Pablo Montoya finished second to match his career best on an oval since moving to NASCAR midway through 2006.

He also was second at Indy last July.
