It was vintage short-track racing, and a perfect way to bid farewell to Lucas Oil Raceway. Lining up on the outside for what would be the penultimate restart, Brad Keselowski nibbled at the right-rear quarter panel of leader Ricky Stenhouse Jr. before crossing over and pulling even on the inside. The two cars made contact, with Keselowski leaning on Stenhouse just enough to force his opponent to yield, and carrying so much speed into the next corner he banged off the wall. The No. 22 car edged out front, where it would remain when Elliott Sadler spun to force a green-white-checkered finish that would result in Keselowski's second Nationwide victory of the season.
