LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Kyle Busch, the winner of the Kentucky Speedway's inaugural Quaker State 400, will get behind the wheel of his race car twice at the Sparta track this summer.

Speedway general manager Mark Simendinger told WKYT Sports that Busch will race in the Nationwide Series Feed the Children 300 on June 28, then in the Sprint Cup race on June 29.

There is no word on whether Busch will drive in the Camping World Truck Series UNOH 225 on June 27.

It's all part of a big weekend for the mile-and-a-half track. Simendinger said individual race tickets will go on sale Wednesday, Jan. 30.

"It's always a fun day for me," he said, "because we get a lot of enthusiasm from fans. It's starts the clock. From here on, we don't have much more time."

Simendinger said the June weekend camping spots will go up for grabs on Wednesday, as well. However, he said, already, season camping sales are higher than last year
