Kyle Busch gave Toyota its first NASCAR Cup win when he streaked to victory in the 500-mile race at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Sunday.

"That's amazing," Busch told reporters after the first NASCAR victory by a foreign manufacturer since Jaguar won a road course race in 1954.

Toyota team-mate Tony Stewart finished second in an impressive performance for Joe Gibbs Racing, the NASCAR team owned by the former Washington Redskins NFL coach.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. took third place in a Chevrolet, followed by Greg Biffle and Jeff Gordon.

Carl Edwards's bid for a third consecutive victory ended when his engine malfunctioned on lap 275 of the 325-lap race.
