Check. And step two, become a contender—which Chris Buescher just delivered.
solidifying RFK Racing in the playoffs and Keselowski with an opportunity to make the post-season as well, it appears the 2012 NASCAR Cup champion’s team may very well possess the “contender” title before season’s end.
In Sunday’s race, the RFK Racing Fords were the event’s top lap leaders with Keselowski leading twice for 102 of the 400 laps and Buescher setting the pace on three occasions for 88 laps. The RFK Racing duo produced the same type of performance in the season opening Daytona 500, leading a total of 74 laps.Keselowski was the event’s top lap leader with 42, while Buescher led 32.
“RFK has made some massive leaps,” Buescher says. “We’ve been in a good spot the last 18 months. We’ve been very competitive at a lot of different styles of race tracks. We’ve been capable of running fifth. Not capable of fighting for wins, as many as we had hoped. We’ve been close at several . Both our cars have this speed at different tracks.”Sean Gardner“I was really hopeful this could be the one that would turn the page for us,” Buescher says.
