You've likely wondered who will win the NASCAR Kansas race this weekend if you've been following it this year. Kurt Busch is the reigning champion, but who is the fastest driver in town? Chastain, Hamlin, or Byron Bell? Let's find out. We'll also give you a brief look at Ryan Blaney's race record so far.
Kurt Busch wins nascar race at kansas speedway
Kyle Busch won the NASCAR race on Sunday at Kansas speedway. The 30-year old finished ahead his brother Kyle Larson and race leader Kyle Larson. Busch claimed first place after eight laps. Busch has 34 career wins, and won the championship title in 2004. He is currently driving for 23XI Racing after his former team, Chip Ganassi Racing, was sold.
Byron Bell is the fastest driver in town
Byron Bell has been the fastest driver around town in all three qualifying sessions, practice sessions, and races. His five-lap average, which was the highest among qualifying session drivers, was the highest. He led 57 laps that stretch. Bell's performance at Kansas has been a surprise to many, including himself. His car has been running smoothly for the entire year. However, his streak of cold runs since Martinsville saw him lose his speed. His team has not lost speed and they can still rely on the driver's experience to win.
Chastain is the fastest driver around town
Ross Chastain, a young Texan hailing from Austin, was the fastest driver to finish in Kansas on Sunday with a P7 result. He was 18th, but he led the most laps in the fastest time and started 18th. He finished third in the Las Vegas Race in March after starting 18th. But he has a long way to go to become the fastest driver in the town.
Hamlin is fastest driver in town
Denny Hamlin currently holds three victories at the track. This includes two wins in his last five attempts. He's aiming to bounce back from Darlington's disappointing performance last week and has been in the top five in eight out of his last ten starts. But, he's not alone with high hopes for Kansas. Kyle Busch has enjoyed success here in recent years, and Chase Elliott is also hoping for a strong showing.
Hendrick Motorsports' record at kansas
Hendrick Motorsports has been invited to Kansas Speedway by the NASCAR Cup Series for Round 2. The team boasts impressive statistics at Kansas, with seven wins and two runner up finishes. The team is currently within 49 laps from the 1.5-mile track mark set in 2005 by RoushFenway Racing. Johnson's 10 victories at mile-and a half facilities will be passed if this streak continues.

How To
How to corner fast
During a race, you want to get your car out of the way of others so you can go faster. This means you have to turn before anyone else turns. Doing this correctly will cause everyone to brake, as they won't know what is ahead. This will help you avoid accidents with other cars. So, how can you turn quickly?
First, it is important to understand where your destination is. You will likely be surprised at where you end up. You need to plan well. To see where you are going at any particular moment, make a map. While it might seem like a lot to do, having a clear idea of where you want to go will save you many headaches down the road.
Next, figure out when your turn will be. It's best to begin after passing the first corner. After you have passed the first corner, it will be clear where you are starting from. The next step is to decide if you want to use the outside or inside lane.
If you want to move in the inside lane you should wait until there isn't any traffic. This will allow you to move fast and avoid hitting anyone. But once you enter the inside lane, you must stay in it. Don't let yourself drift back into the outside lane. You might be able to hit someone else who is moving slowly if this happens. Remember that crossing the line between the lanes can cause you to lose control of the vehicle, making it more vulnerable to accidents.
Once you've chosen which lane you will use, you can choose where you want to turn. This problem can be tackled in many ways. Some people prefer to look for a gap in traffic. Others try to find a clear opening in the road. Others look for the point where the road curves around hills or mountains. No matter what method you use, you must be careful to not block the entire road. You'll cause traffic jams throughout the town if this happens.
After you've picked a spot to turn, you need to decide whether you'll be making a sharp left or a gradual curve. A sharp turn will be easier than a gradual. However, it takes longer and requires more energy. On top of that, it makes it harder to steer your car properly. These are the main reasons why most drivers prefer gradual turns.
Finally, you need to accelerate just enough to escape the car in front of you. Too fast and you will crash into the bumper of the vehicle in front. Running off the road will be a problem if you accelerate too soon. You'll lose control and your car will crash. You need to gradually accelerate in order to avoid this. You can start with very little acceleration and then increase it when you reach the edge.
When you've finished cornering, you need to slow down immediately. This is especially true if you're driving in heavy traffic. This could result in you running someone over.
