It was a rather methodical Chase for Tony Stewart, but it was good enough. Despite not winning once in the final 10 races, Stewart clinched his second Cup championship.
artin Truex Jr. finished seventh Saturday in the Ford 300, good enough to easily clinch his second
consecutive Busch Series championship. Meanwhile, Ryan Newman got by Greg Biffle to snag his sixth win of the season.
fter a near-miss in 2003, Ted Musgrave won his first Craftsman Truck Series championship. Dennis Setzer was second followed by Todd Bodine, who closed the year with three wins in a row.
