The NASCAR Cup Series hits Kansas Speedway today (Saturday, September 27) for qualifying, and we've got all of the details you need.
Today's qualifying session at the 1.5 mile tri-oval will determine the starting lineup for Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 Presented by ESPN BET, the middle race of the playoffs Round of 12 and the last before the unpredictable Roval next weekend.
In last season's race at Kansas, it was Joe Gibbs Racing's Christopher Bell who took pole position, just edging out team-mate Ty Gibbs and RCR's Kyle Busch on that occasion.
However, it was Trackhouse's Ross Chastain who took the win that weekend, with William Byron and Martin Truex Jr. following him home despite Bell leading nearly half of the laps in the race.
We certainly cannot wait to see how the action unfolds this afternoon and who comes out on top heading into Sunday's race.
