Dover International Speedway (Dover, DE) saw Joe Gibbs Racing team members Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin take the checkered flags over the weekend. Busch won Sunday’s Sprint Cup Best Buy 400, and Hamlin crossed the finish line first at Saturday’s Nationwide Series Heluva Good! 200.

Busch crossed the finish line 4.224 seconds ahead of second-place Carl Edwards. This was his fourth win, ninth top-five and 10th top-10 finish of the season on SPICER Chassis. Busch leads the NASCAR Sprint Cup series championship standings by 142 points over second-place Jeff Burton.

Hamlin rewarded the JGR team with its ninth Nationwide win on Saturday, and his second Nationwide win this season. He led all but 69 laps to win the 200-mile race. Joey Logano, an 18-year old rookie racing in the JGR No. 20 Toyota, took sixth-place. This is the same car that has won seven races in 14 starts this season with Busch, Hamlin and Tony Stewart behind the wheel.

JGR began using SPICER Chassis products at the beginning of the 2007 racing season. Drivers like Stewart and Busch rely on SPICER Chassis racing ball joints and tie rod ends that utilize the latest technology and offer lower friction and superior performance. The upper and lower ball joints are available in 1/2 inch short and 1/2 inch long specifications to provide flexibility from track to track.

The SPICER Chassis product line is the most extensive on the market and includes tie rod ends, ball joints, idler arms and alignment products for both domestic and foreign vehicles.
