Chris Buescher - KBOE 104.9FM Hot Country

Chris Buescher of Roush Fenway Racing and Erik Jones of Kyle Busch Motorsports were honored for their championship seasons in the NASCAR X-FINITY and Camping World Truck Series, respectively, on Monday night during a combined awards gala in Hollywood, Florida … The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards – to salute Kyle Busch for his first championship – will be held Friday night, December 4th, in Las Vegas, with live coverage on Motor Racing Network – “The Voice of NASCAR.”

John Hunter Nemechek of NEMCO Motorsports had the highest finish by a rookie in any of NASCAR’s three top series that competed this past weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway, placing second (to Matt Crafton) in Friday’s Camping World Truck Series season finale.

NASCAR X-FINITY Series points leader Chris Buescher of Roush Fenway Racing will see double duty this weekend at Watkins Glen International, also driving in Sunday’s Sprint Cup Series race – where he’ll replace Brett Moffitt in the Number-34 Front Row Motorsports Ford. The extra seat time will help Buescher polish his road-racing skills.

Counting Saturday’s Zippo 200 at The Glen, three of the next four X-FINITY Series events are on road courses. Buescher drove the No. 34 Sprint Cup entry in five races earlier this season with a best finish of twentieth in March at Auto Club Speedway.

Buescher has been atop the X-FINITY Series standings since his victory at Iowa Speedway in mid-May. His lead reached thirty-six points at mid-season but has since shrunk to twenty. Buescher’s last three starts have yielded finishes of thirteenth, sixteenth and fourteenth.

Meanwhile, defending series champion Chase Elliott has climbed back into the title hunt with three straight top-ten finishes.
