Scoring error in Busch race at Bristol burns Kyle Busch

BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Kasey Kahne passed Ryan Newman with eight laps left, then held off several charges from Jason Leffler to win the Busch Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway on Friday.

A NASCAR scoring error against Las Vegan Kyle Busch, costing him a chance to run for the win, marred the race. Busch was penalized with 77 laps left because NASCAR said he violated the pit-road commitment line. He had to forfeit his second-place position, a penalty NASCAR later said was incorrect.

But it was too late by then, as Busch had dropped to 28th.

"I don't know that I hit the line -- I don't think I did," Busch said. "They could have waited to get it sorted out and do the right thing, but they didn't."

With Busch out of the way, Newman pulled away as the leader on the ensuing restart.
