Busch second in truck race

? Kyle Busch finished second Friday night in the Craftsman Trucks Series race at Texas Motor Speedway, the first of a planned cross-country trifecta to become the first driver to race in all three of NASCAR’s national series at three different tracks on the same weekend.

Ron Hornaday Jr. held off Busch for the final two laps after a green-white-checkered finish for his 35th career victory, his first at Texas.

Busch was headed back to Pocono late Friday night, and his itinerary said that he was scheduled to arrive at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport “really late.” There will be more Cup practice today before Busch goes to Nashville for the Nationwide Series race.
