Sunday's Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway got off to a horrendous start for Tony Stewart. The Indiana native cut a tire in the first 10 laps of the 500 lap race, spun and hit the wall. Stewart was forced behind the wall for repairs for more than 20 laps before returning to the track. To make matters worse, the 14 team was penalized for having too many crew members in contact with the pit service area. Stewart muscled through to finish a disappointing 31st.

It proved to be another wild day for Kyle Busch in Sunday's Kobalt Tools 400.  The Las Vegas native was hoping for a victory at his home track but his hopes were dashed thanks to a lap 46 penalty for speeding entering the pits.  Busch was able to overcome his error and be a contender in the latter portion of the 267-lap event.  In all, Busch led 27 laps and ended the day with a solid fourth place effort.

2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series - Race 2 - Subway Fresh Fit 500 Penalty Report

It was a rough day for Kyle Busch and his M&M's/Joe Gibbs Racing team.  Prior to the race, the 18 team was forced to change their car's engine forcing their driver to start the Subway Fresh Fit 500 at the rear of the field instead of where they had qualified, fourth.  Busch was on his way to the front until he spun on lap 49 and hit the wall.  The rest of the event proved to be a struggle for both driver and team and even after getting back on the lead lap in the race's latter stages, Busch found trouble again while trying to avoid running into his older brother, Kurt.  At the checkered flag, Busch crossed the line 23rd, the final car on the lead lap.
