If you were tired of watching races where drivers had to slow down to save fuel, if you were tired of long green flag runs that contained very little racing action then you had to love NASCAR's weekend in the wild wild west.

Through the first six races of the Chase for the Sprint Cup, Brad Keselowski has done everything to put himself in position to win his first Sprint Cup Series title. The Rochester Hills, MI native has won two of the opening six races (Chicago and Dover) and his worst finish in the six chase races is 11th at Charlotte two weeks ago.
Kenseth lead a race-high 77 laps, including the final 20 laps. This was Kenseth’s third win of the season and his second in the chase and his 24th career Sprint Cup victory.
After the first 136 laps of Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway it appeared that Jimmie Johnson had a car well capable of winning the race. Johnson who had led 44 of the first 118 laps of Sunday's race was mired back in traffic after receiving the wave around during a cycle of yellow flag pit stops.
New pavement or old pavement, Martin Truex Jr. has a knack for the Kansas Speedway. Sunday at the newly surfaced 1.5-mile track he brought home another second place finish after being unable to track down the dominant Matt Kenseth who won the Hollywood Casino 400.
With three Nationwide Series races remaining in the 2012 season, Kyle Busch finds himself in unfamiliar territory. The winningest driver in NNS history is winless. Yes, winless. Locked out of a place that he used to take up an almost permanent residence and looking for some way to get back on the right side of the racing Gods. For Busch, nothing less than winning is acceptable.
It was a beautiful autumn day but it would be one that many hope to forget. With a record number of cautions for the track, and the most of any race this season, the Hollywood Casino 400 more resembled a survival expedition than a NASCAR race.
