The car Kyle Busch will be driving at Pocono Raceway this weekend in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series race has been good. It finished fourth in the Cup race at Indianapolis on Sunday and was eighth in the rain-shortened Pocono race in June.
"This Hendrick Motorsports team gave me a great car last week at Indy and we are turning it around to take back to Pocono this weekend," said Busch, driver of the No. 5 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. "It was the best car I've ever had at Indy and, to be honest, I thought we had something for Tony (Stewart). I think we passed more cars than anyone all day long -- and usually at Indy you can't pass. It says a lot about the engines at Hendrick Motorsports and the cars these guys are building."
Stewart won the race at Indianapolis, the second of his NASCAR career.
Busch is eighth in the Nextel Cup Series standings. He is concentrating on his road course package this week, testing at Road Atlanta in Georgia today in preparation for the Cup race at Watkins Glen International on Aug. 12.
