Highlights: Darlington
Kyle Busch won the battle of attrition Saturday night as NASCAR's least popular driver overcame a pit-road penalty and several scrapes with the wall to win at Darlington Raceway. Busch's third Sprint Cup Series victory of the season hardly thrilled the crowd, which viciously booed him in prerace introductions and hadn't softened by the time he took the checkered flag. Already loathed by many, he enraged Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s massive fan base by wrecking him as they raced for the win last week in Richmond.
His win at Darlington was his eighth of the season spanning NASCAR's top three series, and he has won most of them in very convincing fashion. Watch highlights of the 2008 Dodge Challenger 500.

It usually starts with the faintest glimpse of a fin in your mirror. You get nervous, real nervous. And once you see his eyes, you're all but done. With teeth like a thousand tiny guillotines, there's nothing you can do. He's hungry. And you're lunch.
#11 - Denny Hamlin
A battle cry raises the hair on your neck. You sense you're being watched. He calmly circles, waiting for his moment as you nervously adjust in your seat. He makes his move, accelerating straight for you. Before you have time to think, his talons tear into you. He's the hunter. And you're his prey.
#07 - Clint Bowyer
You have no clue, but you're being watched. He hangs back, quietly stalking, toying with you. Dangling hope inches from your face only to snatch it away with one quick and lethal pounce.
#24 - Jeff Gordon
The temperature in your car begins to rise. Heat creeps into your cockpit. You detect a slight change in atmospheric pressure. So you adjust the ventilation in your fire suit, praying for relief. Soon your mirror is completely engulfed in flames. Here he comes. You're toast.
