Kansas Speedway Menu: MENCS TV | Prac 1 | Prac 2 | Qual | Averages | Race Update: Several cars sent to the rear due to Kansas Speedway inspection failures Today, it’s single car runs in qualifying, the latest adjustment to NASCAR’s qualifying rules. Drivers will get just 1 timed lap in qualifying. This is also on impound race. Cars will roll through inspection after qualifying which will double as pre-race inspection. Kansas Speedway Qualifying – Report WFO at Kansas Speedway! But, there won’t be any track records set today. With the reduction in horsepower and the increase in downforce, there’s simply no lifting in qualifying. “I’ve been able to get some comfort and drivability out of it. But, doing those sort of things will definitely slow you down in single car speed. So, don’t expect us to be very good here today folks,” Kyle Busch tells FOX Sports ahead of his qualifying run. Kyle Busch is pinching the entry and exit to every corner. He said the team added downforce and now he doesn’t need all of the race track to keep it under him. After 19 cars, it’s Bubba Wallace that sits at the top of the board. He had an emotional media availability just ahead of this season as he discussed how the season has gone to date. He’s the fastest overall in the first group. “It’s a nice shot in the arm,” says Bubba Wallace. 5 cars remain, Stewart-Haas Racing currently sits first, second and third. The fourth one of Kevin Harvick is the fourth one, yet to qualify. Harvick to the top of the board! He topped his teammates by nearly a tenth. Stewart-Haas sweeps the first row and the second row. Kevin Harick will start from the pole position at Kansas Speedway! View the full Kansas Speedway starting lineup below.

Click here to exit the well.<doc-sep>KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Elation and heartbreak were barely more than a lap apart when Ross Chastain took the checkered flag to win Friday night’s Digital Ally 250 NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series race at Kansas Speedway. Chastain took the lead on Lap 165 of 167 after Stewart Friesen ran out of fuel — the result of a miscommunication between the driver and crew chief Trip Bruce. Chastain crossed the finish line .483 seconds ahead of runner-up Ben Rhodes to secure his first victory in the series in his 66th start and the first for Niece Motorsports and owner Al Niece. RELATED: Race results Friesen, on the other hand, rolled home in 15th, a lap down and a study in frustration as a first victory in the Truck series continued to elude him. For Chastain, the victory was a welcome vindication after his rags-to-riches-to-rags story of 2018. With superb performances in limited NASCAR Xfinity Series action with Chip Ganassi Racing last year — including a victory at Las Vegas — Chastain earned a full-time ride in Ganassi’s No. 42 Chevrolet for 2019, only to lose it when the team’s sponsorship collapsed. “Aw, man, this is what sports is all about,” Chastain said, barely able to contain his emotions. “We had the world by the tail last fall, and everything got taken away from us. We didn’t quit, though … I’m going to celebrate this one a lot more than I did the last one. “I thought, after the last one (in Las Vegas), they were going to come a lot more easy. But it’s not easy … I hate to see Stewie lose one like that. I know he’s been trying to win, but, yes — we got it!” Friesen came to pit road for his final stop under green on Lap 126 but left his stall after taking right-side tires only on a planned four-tire stop. Though Friesen had a lead of more than five seconds over Grant Enfinger when he got back up to speed, the shortness of the pit stop didn’t allow the crew to fill the fuel cell. Friesen’s chances looked better when the third-place truck of Brett Moffitt got loose under Enfinger’s Ford and cut Enfinger’s right-rear tire, forcing both trucks to pit road for unscheduled stops. And when the No. 33 Chevrolet of Josh Reaume stopped on the track on Lap 146 to cause the sixth and final caution, Bruce figured Friesen had enough fuel to finish the race. WATCH: Moffitt spins Within three laps of the checkered flag, however, Friesen ran out. “It’s been a dream to race at this level and thanks to all the car owners that have given me a chance after all these years,” Friesen said. “I came with nothing but a helmet bag. Just a little miscommunication that we need to work on. “We just can’t close it. I figured I’d screw up a restart at the end, rather than run out of fuel. They said that we were to the good. I didn’t know we were taking four (tires). I thought for sure we were taking two. Just a lot of silence on the radio. That’s it.” Notes: With the victory, Chastain extended his streak of top-10 finishes to start the season to seven, all with Niece Motorsports. … Toyota drivers Todd Gilliland, Austin Hill and Brandon Jones finished third, fourth and fifth, respectively. … Pole winner Matt Crafton ran sixth, followed by Enfinger and Moffitt.<doc-sep>

But, the trucks are just on the edge of being able to hold it wide open. Kansas Truck Qualifying – Report Most drivers run right against the wall on the warm up lap. That’s to build momentum coming to the green when they’ll drop right to the bottom. Motor issues for Bayley Currey as he gets up to speed for his qualifying run. He shuts it down early, without completing a lap. Jennifer Jo Cobb is around off turn four! She backs it in the outside wall, slides across the track and through the infield grass. The back end just stepped out as she ran through the center of turns three and four. Austin Wayne Self is back after a short but mandated vacation from the sport.
