FONTANA, Calif., Oct. 9 (UPI) -- Kyle Busch extended his record Nationwide Series winning streak to 12 races Saturday with his victory in the CampingWorld.com 300.

Busch easily pulled away in the final five laps after a restart at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif., overcoming an earlier speeding penalty to nail down the 42nd win of his career.

Busch is now only six victories shy of tying Mark Martin's all-time record for most wins in the series.

Current Nationwide points leader Brad Keselowski came in second.

Kevin Harvick, meanwhile, led for the most laps Saturday but blew a potential victory thanks to two pit stop blunders, eventually settling for third.

Carl Edwards came in fourth and Joey Logano rounded out the top five.
