KANSAS CITY, Kan. — That horrific barrel roll last weekend, the one that looked more like a scene from "Talladega Nights" than a real NASCAR wreck?
Turns out it gave Joey Logano confidence, not fear.
Passing points leader Kyle Busch with three laps left, Logano won at Kansas Speedway on Saturday, pulling out his fourth Nationwide Series victory of the season — less than a week after that spectacular crash during a NASCAR Sprint Cup race.
"If you can barrel roll a race car like that and come out OK, it's going to give you confidence to drive it harder," Logano said. "I didn't think it was a big deal at all coming into today. I knew a lot of people did and were wondering how I was going to be. This should put it all to rest, I hope."
