HAMPTON, Ga. - Jeff Burton passed Matt Kenseth with 20 laps remaining Saturday and raced away to his first NASCAR Busch Series victory in four years.

Burton is a regular with Richard Childress Racing in the Nextel Cup Series and only a part-time performer in Busch. He beat runner-up Kasey Kahne, who won last week in Las Vegas, to the finish line by 1.42 seconds - nearly half the final straightaway on the 1.54-mile Atlanta Motor Speedway oval - to take the Nicorette 300.

It was Burton's 21st Busch win but his first victory of any kind since he won at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., in October 2002 while driving for Roush Racing. The most recent of Burton's 17 Cup wins came at Phoenix in October 2001, also for Roush.
