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.

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.

The Nationwide Series race at Kansas was a caution filled display of skills and patience. The freshly paved surface proved to be a wickedly fast, wickedly slick Halloween ghoul. The track management created a surface that after a couple of races and a winter of seasoning will be one of the best tracks in NASCAR.
Just a day after I wrote the story, I saw what I call “the letter.” It was a letter to Earnhardt from Amanda Gardstrom. Gardstrom is the daughter of NASCAR legend Fred Lorenzen. In the letter, she also commends Earnhardt. She knows all too well what can happen when proper medical care isn’t given after a concussion. You see, Fred Lorenzen now resides at a nursing home, and dementia rules his day.
