Cambridge native Matt Kenseth dominated and won Sunday's NASCAR Nextel Cup season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Florida.

Kenseth won what was the final race with his longtime crew chief, Robbie Reiser, who will assume the position of general manager of Roush Fenway Racing in 2008.

Kenseth led a race-high 213 of the 267 laps en route to the victory. The win was Kenseth's second of the year and his first at Homestead.

Jimmie Johnson finished seventh to claim his second-consecutive NASCAR Nextel Cup championship for Hendrick Motorsports, while Jeff Gordon finished fourth in the race to claim second in season driver's points.
