HOMESTEAD, Fla.-Jeff Burton wrapped up the Busch Series car owner's championship in style Saturday night, winning the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway to give Richard Childress his 11th NASCAR title.

Burton, who shared the No. 29 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet with Scott Wimmer this season, took control late in the race after a series of green flag pit stops and pulled away to the win while runner-up Mark Martin and series points champion Carl Edwards battled behind him.

As Burton crossed the finish line half a straightaway ahead of Martin on the 1.5-mile oval, Childress came on the radio and said, “That's the way to win a championship. Scott Wimmer, Jeff Burton, you guys, you're champions.”

It was the fourth Busch title and second in a row for Childress, whose team has also won six championships in NASCAR's top stock car series and one in the Craftsman Truck Series.

Edwards, who wrapped up the driver's title two weeks ago in Texas, lost third place to Matt Kenseth at the end, finishing just ahead of Stephen Leicht. Greg Biffle, who goes into Sunday's Nextel Cup finale having won the last three Cup races here, finished sixth.

Things had to fall just the right way for longtime Cup star Burton to win his fifth Busch race of the season and the 27th of his career.

Burton, along with several other leaders, had to pit for gas and tires in the final 40 laps and fell all the way to ninth. But a caution flag on lap 175 of the 200-lap race sent the new leaders to the pits and put Burton back on top to stay.
