Kurt and Kyle Busch dominated Saturday's Zippo 200 at The Glen but it was Kurt who picked up his first NASCAR Nationwide Series win since 2006.

 

The Busch brothers started one-two and led every lap of the race. Originally scheduled for a distance of 82 laps the race went a total of 85 laps with a green-white-checkered finish.

 

Kyle Busch made his final stop on lap 78 handing the lead to big brother Kurt. The last caution came out on lap 80 with Kurt Busch holding off his Sprint Cup rival Jimmie Johnson on the restart to take the win.

 

Johnson finished second followed by Joey Logano, Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards.

 

Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. finished 15th and retains the Nationwide Series point lead.
