Outside pole sitter Cole Whitt took the lead from pole sitter Ricky Stenhouse Jr. with Kevin Harvick pushing Whitt and Whitt led the first lap. On lap 4, Clint Bowyer took the lead with Elliott Sadler pushing him. Bowyer and Sadler switched positions on lap 5 and gave the lead to Brad Keselowski with Joey Logano behind him. Keselowski and Logano did the same thing on lap 6 and gave the lead to Sadler. On lap 7, Kurt Busch took the lead with his brother Kyle pushing him. On lap 8, Joey Logano took the lead. On that same lap, the first caution flew when Brian Scott's car stalled on the backstretch.

On lap 15, Joey Logano took the lead with Elliott Sadler pushing him. On lap 16, Mike Wallace attempted to take the lead with Clint Bowyer pushing him but both Logano and Wallace left the middle open and the Busch brothers took advantage and Kurt Busch took the lead with Kyle behind him.

Danica Patrick won the race off of pit road and she led the field to the restart on lap 46. On the restart, Kurt Busch took the lead with Austin Dillon behind him but both were passed by Joe Nemechek with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Nemechek took the lead.

With 35 to go, Justin Allgaier took the lead with Danica Patrick in turn 2 after Harvick and Wallace went to switch spots but did it in a very unsuccessful way. Harvick got caught up in the middle with no draft so Wallace tried to come down in front of James Buescher. But Wallace did it too late and Wallace made contact with Buescher cutting his right front tire and causing him to go up the track and turn Brad Keselowski in the first big wreck of the race that took out 17 cars in a chain reaction wreck. The wreck collected Mike Wallace, Kurt Busch, Elliott Sadler, Danny Efland, Clint Bowyer, Brad Keselowski, Casey Roderick, James Buescher, Kevin Harvick, Bobby Santos III, Michael Annett, Kyle Busch, Johanna Long, Jason Bowles, Joe Nemechek, Cole Whitt, and John Wes Townley.

With 25 to go, Austin Dillon took the lead with Justin Allgaier pushing him. With 24 to go, Dillon decided to drop out and give Allgaier the lead but Allgaier was slingshotted by Kurt Busch and Busch took the lead. Going through turn 4, rookie Brad Sweet attempted to take the lead from Busch on the same lap with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. pushing him but Stenhouse got Sweet at the wrong angle and turned Sweet off of turn 4 where Sweet hit the inside wall drivers side door first bringing out the 4th caution of the race. The race would restart with 19 laps to go. On the restart, Bobby Santos III all of a sudden went through the grass on the backstretch. No caution was flown. At the same time, Elliott Sadler took the lead with Joey Logano pushing him. With 18 to go, the 5th caution flew for a 6 car accident on the backstretch. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. was pushing Jeffrey Earnhardt when he hit Earnhardt at the wrong angle sending Earnhardt spinning across the track. Danica Patrick went low to avoid Earnhardt but came across the nose of Eric McClure sending Patrick around and hitting the inside wall while Blake Koch made contact with Jeremy Clements when Koch tried to avoid the wreck and ended up spinning himself. The race would restart with 12 laps to go. With 11 to go, Sam Hornish Jr. took the lead with Justin Allgaier but couldn't get fully in front of Sadler and Sadler retook it back before Austin Dillon tried to take it with 10 to go with Kurt Busch and led that lap but couldn't make the pass on Sadler. With 8 to go, Austin Dillon took the lead from Sadler. Dillon was looking to get his 2nd Nationwide Series win in a row after he won his first ever in his career in the previous weeks' race at Kentucky. With 5 to go, Justin Allgaier attempted to take the lead with Sam Hornish Jr. and led that lap but couldn't pass Dillon. But with just 4 laps to go, the 6th and final caution flew for debris on the frontstretch that came off of John Wes Townley's car. This would extend the race to three attempts of a green-white-checkered finish. On the restart, Dillon shot out to the lead but Kurt Busch slingshotted him to the outside and tried to have Logano as his pusher but Logano went high to make it 3 wide and Logano took the lead with Elliott Sadler behind him. On the final lap, Kurt Busch went to take the lead with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. behind him and got Logano and Sadler separated and Busch took the lead. Behind them, Austin Dillon got a big run with Michael Annett pushing him but Dillon wrecked coming through the tri-oval before he had a chance and Dillon caused a second big wreck coming to the checkered flag where 8 cars wrecked with Dillon where Dillon took a couple hard shots. First getting t-boned by Kyle Busch in the drivers side door and then going back up where he got t-boned on the other side by Robert Richardson Jr. The wreck also collected Johanna Long, Jason Bowles, Tayler Malsam, and Josh Richards. Kurt Busch held off everyone and won the race as soon as Dillon spun. The win would be Busch's first ever win at Daytona in all of NASCAR and his 2nd and final win of the 2012 season. Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Michael Annett, Austin Dillon, and Joey Logano rounded out the top 5 while Elliott Sadler, Justin Allgaier, Mike Bliss, Timmy Hill, and Sam Hornish Jr. rounded out the top 10.https://www.autoweek.com/racing/nascar/a1958281/wild-one-kurt-busch-wins-subway-jalapeno-250-daytona/ A Wild One: Kurt Busch Wins Subway Jalapeno 250 At Daytona July 6, 2012 Race results Pos Car Driver Team Manufacturer Laps Run Laps Led Status Points 1 1 Kurt Busch (i) Phoenix Racing Chevrolet 101 23 running 0 2 6 Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Roush Fenway Racing Ford 101 0 running 42 3 43 Michael Annett Richard Petty Motorsports Ford 101 0 running 41 4 3 Austin Dillon (R) Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 101 8 running 35 5 18 Joey Logano (i) Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 101 12 running 0 6 2 Elliott Sadler Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 101 10 running 39 7 31 Justin Allgaier Turner Motorsports Chevrolet 101 7 running 38 8 44 Mike Bliss TriStar Motorsports Toyota 101 0 running 36 9 41 Timmy Hill Rick Ware Racing Chevrolet 101 0 running 35 10 12 Sam Hornish Jr. Penske Racing Dodge 101 6 running 35 11 51 Jeremy Clements Jeremy Clements Racing Chevrolet 101 2 running 34 12 70 Johanna Long (R) ML Motorsprots Chevrolet 101 0 running 32 13 4 Danny Efland JD Motorsports Chevrolet 101 0 running 31 14 81 Jason Bowles (R) MacDonald Motorsports Toyota 101 0 running 30 15 19 Tayler Malsam TriStar Motorsports Toyota 101 0 running 29 16 39 Josh Richards Go Green Racing Ford 101 0 running 28 17 23 Robert Richardson Jr. R3 Motorsports Chevrolet 101 0 running 27 18 14 Eric McClure TriStar Motorsports Toyota 101 0 running 26 19 82 Blake Koch MacDonald Motorsports Dodge 101 0 running 25 20 08 Bryan Silas (i) Randy Hill Racing Ford 100 0 running 0 21 40 Erik Darnell The Motorsports Group Chevrolet 99 0 running 23 22 87 Joe Nemechek NEMCO Motorsports Toyota 97 5 running 23 23 54 Kyle Busch (i) Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota 94 3 running 0 24 38 Brad Sweet (R) Turner Motorsports Chevrolet 93 0 running 20 25 99 John Wes Townley (i) RAB Racing Toyota 89 0 running 0 26 20 Clint Bowyer (i) Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 86 1 running 0 27 24 Casey Roderick SR² Motorsports Toyota 84 0 running 17 28 33 Kevin Harvick (i) Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 84 2 crash 0 29 88 Cole Whitt (R) JR Motorsports Chevrolet 83 3 running 16 30 15 Jeffrey Earnhardt Rick Ware Racing Ford 82 0 crash 14 31 7 Danica Patrick JR Motorsports Chevrolet 82 13 crash 14 32 11 Brian Scott Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 82 0 running 12 33 36 Bobby Santos III Tommy Baldwin Racing Chevrolet 80 0 crash 11 34 30 James Buescher (i) Turner Motorsports Chevrolet 71 1 crash 0 35 22 Brad Keselowski (i) Penske Racing Dodge 66 2 crash 0 36 01 Mike Wallace JD Motorsports Chevrolet 65 3 crash 9 37 52 Joey Gase Hamilton Means Racing Chevrolet 50 0 overheating 7 38 74 Mike Harmon Mike Harmon Racing Chevrolet 31 0 overheating 6 39 50 T.
