BROOKLYN, Mich.— Kasey Kahne won from the pole again, helped this time by a timely caution flag and a downpour that ended Sunday's NASCAR Nextel Cup race 71 laps early.Kahne, earning a series-best fourth victory of the season and his third from the top qualifying spot, fell behind on lap 47 of the 3M Performance 400 when he had to make a green-flag stop after debris accumulated on the grill, overheating the motor.That knocked the 26-year-old youngster back to 38th in the 43-car field, a lap behind the leaders. But a caution for light rain just seven laps later allowed Kahne to regain the lead lap and he quickly drove back into contention.After the green flag waved on lap 116, Kahne, who had taken four fresh tires, quickly chased down rookie Reed Sorenson.
