American Canadian Tour
On July 24, 2011, Busch won $31,900 at the 38th annual TD Bank 250 presented by New England Dodge Dealers in Oxford, Maine. Busch defeated the young Austin Theriault, Nick Sweet and two-time TD Bank 250 winner Eddie MacDonald. Kyle Busch became only the second active NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver to win New England's largest short track race. Kevin Harvick is the only other active NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver to win the race with his victory in 2008. The 2011 event was Kyle Busch's first ever TD Bank 250 win in three attempts. (He also entered the race in 2005 and 2006.) Busch was excited about the race win saying "I've had this one on my list of big races that I wanted to win and now that I've done it, it feels great - it was everything I thought it would be." Kyle drove his own Kyle Busch Motorsports number 51 late model with sponsorship from HP Hood's Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips.
Busch also won the 150 lap PASS (Pro All Star Series) super late model touring series race at Oxford Plains Speedway the night before the TD Bank 250 driving the Kyle Busch Motorsports number 51 Aaron's Dream Machine.

“More than illness or death, the American journalist fears standing alone against the whim of his owners or the prejudices of his audience. Deprive William Safire of the insignia of the New York Times, and he would have a hard time selling his truths to a weekly broadsheet in suburban Duluth.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“We’re definite in Nova Scotia—’bout things like ships ... and fish, the best in the world.”
—John Rhodes Sturdy, Canadian screenwriter. Richard Rossen. Joyce Cartwright (Ella Raines)
“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
