Homefield Advantage for Busch


Kyle Busch returned home this week for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series race at Las Vegas Moor Speedway. Busch finished second to Hendrick teammate Jimmie Johnson in 2005 here and looks to better that in the town he was raised. This is a homefield of sorts for both Kyle and his brother Kurt. Kyle is an 18-1 favorite at the UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 and my money's on him to end up in the winner's circle. Couple the homefield advantage with the vast knowledge of teammates' Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson and we have a serious contender in Busch. Watch out for the 5 car on Sunday.
