Kasey Kahne out drove and out thought his rivals through 15 caution flags and just as many pitstops to take his third win of the season in Sunday's four and a half hour Coca Cola 600 at the Lowe's Motor Speedway.

Ryan Newman spun and had a wheel bearing failure and finished 35th, one place behind Kevin Harvick whose team had to change a gear cluster and exhaust. Jeff Gordon finished 36th after making late race contact with the wall while Kyle Busch was relegated to a 38th place finish after being clipped by a spinning Casey Mears. Kyle's brother Kurt was 39th after making contact with the wall while Tony Stewart and Dale Jarrett were classified 42nd and 43rd after early race accidents.

Stewart, who hurt his already injured shoulder even more, was taken to a local hospital where it was discovered that he had fractured his right scapula.
