AJ's been less successful in the Cup Series. It won't get any better for him unless he races in the Xfinity Series. That would be the best option for him.

Also folks, the Craftsman Truck Series at Kansas' currently in progress on FS1.

It's announced that Carson Hocevar's advancing to the Round of 8. Fucking awesome!

Sucks for Matt DiBenedetto that he won't advance to the next round.

NASCAR officials penalized the 23XI Racing No. 23 Toyota team Friday after the car failed NASCAR Cup Series pre-race inspection twice at Kansas Speedway.

Zachary Marquardt, car chief for the No. 23 team and driver Bubba Wallace, was ejected for the remainder of the race weekend. The team will also forfeit pit-stall selection for Sunday’s Hollywood Casino 400 (3 p.m. ET, USA, MRN, SiriusXM, NBC Sports App), the second of 10 races in the Cup Series Playoffs.

Wallace is the defending race winner for Sunday’s 400-miler. He is also ranked 13th in the 16-driver postseason grid, just one point below the provisional elimination line with two races (at Kansas and Bristol) before the field is trimmed.

Toyota teams have won three consecutive races, and six of the last eight at the 1.5-mile Kansas track.

Missed the truck race, and likely won't be around much/if any today. Just saw the Bubba news too. That's definitely gonna change my fantasy strategy lol

This track is eating people alive, that is all

So so upset man. Bubba had a car that could win today.

I started Bubba because it's Kansas. That and super speedways are the logical places to start him. Of course, I started MTJ too
