Busch earned his 199th career victory across NASCAR’s three major series last week at Phoenix, and the Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota driver is in position to match Petty’s hallowed mark at Fontana.

Busch missed his first chance Saturday when he finished second to Cole Custer in the Xfinity Series race, falling victim to a bad pit stop in a race he had dominated.
