Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
FONTANA, Calif., Oct. 10 (UPI) -- Joey Logano survived several late-race wrecks Saturday to win the Nationwide Copart 300.
Logano, who earlier was involved in an accident with Greg Biffle, took the lead from Brad Keselowski and then held off Brian Vickers for his fifth victory of the season and the sixth of his Nationwide Series career.
Vickers finished second, while Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick and Keselowski completed the top five.
Denny Hamlin relieved Kyle Busch in the No.18 Toyota early in the 300-mile race. Busch, who is suffering from flu-like symptoms, led 36 laps before hopping out of the car and handing it over to his teammate during the first caution.
Hamlin, Keselowski and Biffle battled three-wide for the lead with 10 laps to go, with Hamlin and Biffle making contact and slamming into the wall. Busch was credited with a 31st-place finish and saw his series lead over Edwards cut to 155 points with five races to go.
