Kyle Busch: Chase is ‘entertaining,’ not necessarily fair

“When something unique is handed to you like this, that would never get old”, Gordon said.

It was an unwittingly decent analogy for his and several other race-winners predicament in the Chase for the Sprint Cup entering the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway on Sunday. Finally takes lead for good on Lap 185 and increases his all-time Xfinity victory total to 75.

For me it’s really no different, we show up and try to do the best we can every week. Keselowski said he didn’t think not having the top choice – he picks 42nd – is that big of a deal.

Carl Edwards, along with Harvick and Kyle Busch, are the other three drivers with single-digit qualifying averages.

The track should provide plenty of chances for fast racing and on the edge racing thanks to its built up grip.

“I don’t know”, he said. We don’t necessarily have the fastest speed at every race, (but) it seems like we have a good solid group. However, Kevin Harvick leads in terms of odds to win the Sprint Cup title and also has a good shot to claim the victory for this race. “I mean, I definitely love cab but I prefer just to mix it with a little bit of something that you can blend it with that just kind of smooths it out and really creates great balance”. That is why we haven’t gone to Victory Lane as much as an organization as I think we would like to this year.

“That’s something to be proud of and something we need to take advantage of”.

Keselowski certainly would like to break out at Kansas with a win and avoid the mayhem that is sure to happen next week in the CampingWorld.com 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. There are only four drivers with an average qualifying start better than 10th, and of the four, Logano, with an average start of 6.8, is the best by a considerable margin.

“I look at Loudon; I thought we were awesome at Loudon and it didn’t come together with the restart deal”.

Despite leading for a grand total of 148 laps, Kenseth had to settle for second ahead of Logano who had enjoyed a good run to the flag gaining three places in the two-lap sprint top the finish, meaning that he crossed the line in third ahead of Ty Dillon. Am I the only one who has noticed that NBC has all but made Danica Patrick and the No. 10 Chevrolet team disappear in their broadcasts since taking over from FOX at mid season?

Where: Kansas Speedway, a 1.5-mile modified oval in Kansas City, Kan.

“We ain’t got nothing to lose”, he said at Kansas Speedway.

“I didn’t watch it yet to be honest with you, I still haven’t seen it. It was a busy week, we were in Phoenix all week testing and I just didn’t watch it to be honest with you”. The top eight drivers will advance to the third round. “We want to be one of those guys that comes to the front and stays in the front, so we’ve got to keep working”. You get eliminated. You are out.
