While he didn't have the dominant truck all night, Kyle Larson passed the dominant truck late in the going and scored the victory on the dirt of Eldora.
The only story of note involves the No. 88 and who will be behind the wheel. That would be Jeff Gordon, who comes out of retirement to run Indianapolis and Watkins Glen while Dale Earnhardt Jr. recovers from the effects of his latest concussion. Shaky balance and some nausea are what he needs to overcome, but while that is happening Gordon will run his 798th and 799th career races.
They had a race and Dale Earnhardt Jr. was not in it. Why bother? Should this not have been a day of universal sobbing, hand wringing, and “woe is me?” Of course, it should have been, but there was a race to be run in New Hampshire.
It's an unspoken opinion among many NASCAR pundits and competitors: Alex Bowman is a talented, capable driver. Granted, there's been an absence of trophies in his record, with a 13th-place at Daytona in 2014 being his career-best finish. But with the right equipment, Bowman could very well pull off some strong performances.

"The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading..." and I need to unload the question of whether you really want to see Jeff Gordon in a Sprint Cup car next week.
I was working the afternoon shift on WVAM in Altoona, Pennsylvania when the news crossed the wire that Davey Allison was in a helicopter crash at Talladega Superspeedway. By the time I woke up the next morning, Davey was gone. That damn helicopter.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. will not compete in this weekend's Sprint Cup race in New Hampshire due to symptoms of a concussion. The driver of the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet was evaluated this week in Charlotte and physicians declared him unclear to take part in the New Hampshire 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
In 113 NASCAR Cup Series starts at Kansas Speedway, Richard Childress Racing has one win (Kevin Harvick, 2013) along with five top-five and 29 top-10 finishes.
Hendrick Motorsports is the all-time leader in wins (11), top fives (51) and top 10s (96) at the 1.5-mile tri-oval and its seven poles are tied for the most.
