Kyle Larson capitalize­d on Kyle Busch’s early exit to win the NASCAR Xfinity Food City 300 on Friday night in Bristol, Tenn.

The race went into overtime after Daniel Hemric spun with two laps remaining. Larson held off a challenge from Justin Allgaier on the restart.

Busch led for the first 70 laps until he got a flat right front tire that caused him to hit the wall and damaged his car enough that he couldn’t return.
