Qualifying accident forces Busch to backup
Kurt Busch - Furniture Row Racing-78
March 2, 2013 - 3:20 PM ET
After a solid first qualifying lap at the Phoenix 1-mile oval Friday, Kurt Busch's No. 78 Furniture Row/Beautyrest Chevrolet SS scraped the wall during the second lap.
The damage (right-front and right-side) was enough that the team will go to the backup car for Sunday's Subway Fresh Fit 500. A parts breakage in the coolant system that sprayed water under the tires caused Busch to lose control of the car. Going to a backup car will result in Kurt starting Sunday's race from the rear of the field.-Furniture Row Motorsports
