RICHMOND, Va. — Kurt Busch beat Denny Hamlin to the checkered flag by .062 seconds to win Friday night's Nationwide race at Richmond.

Busch delivered the first-ever Nationwide Series victory to the team owned by his brother, Kyle Busch. The win was Busch’s fourth in the series and his first on a short track. Hamlin came up 2 feet short after a phenomenal drive from the rear of the field after a pit road mistake.

“To get KBM (Kyle Busch Motorsports) its first win — this is unbelievable,” Kurt Busch said in Victory Lane. “It’s harder than you think, putting a program together. You think you can come in here and muscle your way to the top, but you have to think your way to the top.”

Pole-sitter Kevin Harvick ran third, followed by defending series champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Sam Hornish Jr. Elliott Sadler finished sixth, followed by Ryan Blaney, Michael Annett, Austin Dillon and Kasey Kahne.

“This is the most emotional I’ve ever been for a win,” said Kyle. “Man, this is cool. When you’re behind the wheel, it’s a lot easier to do. Kurt ran him really tough, and then Denny ran us clean.”

Top 10 leaders after 7 of 33:

1. Sadler 285
2. Stenhouse 283
3. A. Dillon 262
4. Hornish 232
5. Annett 220
6. Whitt 207
7. Allgaier 192
8. Malsam 182
9. Bayne 180
10. Bliss 174
