Last year: Mike Wallace jumped from fifth to first on the last lap and won the Winn-Dixie 250. The victory snapped Wallace’s 137-race winless streak in Busch races dating to 1994.

Fast facts: Last week’s race was the first Busch event not to be completed since Nov. 1, 2003, at Phoenix. … Tony Stewart won the season-opening Hershey’s TAKE 5 at Daytona on Feb. 19. … Kenny Wallace has five top-10 finishes in the last seven races, including two second-place showings.

Last race: Dennis Setzer won his second straight race and took the points lead with his victory in the Toyota Tundra Milwaukee 200. Setzer entered the event trailing Bobby Hamilton by five points in the standings, but moved to the lead by 35 over the defending series champion.

Last year: Carl Edwards overcame a first-lap accident to win the O’Reilly Auto Parts 250. But Edwards’ Ford failed inspection after the race because it did not meet the minimum height requirement. NASCAR officials said it’s possible the truck failed because of damage from the accident.

Fast facts: Setzer recorded his 14th career truck win last weekend to move into sixth place. … The four previous winners at Kansas started fourth or better, but none from the pole. … Ted Musgrave is the only driver to lead all four truck races at Kansas. … Ricky Hendrick became the youngest driver to win a truck series race by taking the inaugural Kansas event in 2001. At 21 years, 3 months, 5 days, Hendrick was more than seven months younger than Kurt Busch was when he won in July 2000.

Next race: Built Ford Tough 250, July 9, Sparta, Ky.

Fast facts: Michelin offered Tuesday to refund money to those who bought tickets for the U.S. Grand Prix. … Portugal’s Tiago Monteiro finished third at Indianapolis for his first F1 points and podium finish. … Ralf Schumacher missed last year’s race after cracking two vertebrae in his back following a crash the previous event at Indianapolis. … During the 2003 event, David Coulthard mistakenly pulled out of the pits while his car was being refueled.

INDY RACING LEAGUE

Argent Mortgage Indy 300

Site: Kansas City, Kan.

Track: Kansas Speedway (tri-oval, 1.5 miles, 15 degrees banking in turns).

Race distance: 300 miles, 200 laps.

Last race: Helio Castroneves avoided disaster with nine laps to go and cruised to the victory in the SunTrust Indy Challenge at Richmond, Va. Castroneves was leading with nine laps remaining when Darren Manning and Roger Yasukawa made contact just ahead of him. Manning’s car skidded quickly into the outside wall, and then Yasukawa’s followed, but not before Castroneves was able to squeak by, with Yasukawa’s car missing his by inches.

Last year: Buddy Rice edged Rahal teammate Vitor Meira by .0051 seconds — the second-closest margin in series history — to win the Argent Mortgage Indy 300.

Fast facts: Three of the last four races at Kansas have had margins of victory of less than 0.2 seconds. … Tony Kanaan’s series-record streak of 22 consecutive top-10 finishes ended with his accident at Richmond. … Toyota will end a 12-year run as an engine supplier in U.S. open-wheel racing after the 2006 IRL season, the Japanese auto manufacturer said Monday night.

CHAMP CAR WORLD SERIES

Last race: Paul Tracy rebounded from an early exit the year before to win the Grand Prix of Cleveland for his 30th career victory, moving him into seventh place on Champ Car’s all-time list — one behind Al Unser Jr. The previous year, Tracy stormed off the course after he was hit from behind at the treacherous Turn 1, knocking the pole-sitter off track and out of the race just seconds after it began.

Next race: Toronto, July 10.

NHRA

Last event: Brandon Bernstein ended a 26-race winless streak in Top Fuel, turning a 4.553-second pass at 324.59 mph to beat Morgan Lucas at the Sears Craftsman Nationals at Gateway Raceway.
