The NASCAR Cup Series Chase continues at Kansas Speedway with the track's second race date of the season.
The Hollywood Casino 400 on Sept. 27 is the fourth of 10 races in the Chase, and the first of a run
of three 1.5-mile ovals.
In 2026, a 1.5-mile oval often means Toyota dominance. The series hasn't raced on a traditional 1.5-mile oval since Chicagoland on July 5.
Cars did not have any track time on Sept. 26, with practice and qualifying canceled due to weather.
Joey Logano is on the pole after the lineup was set by the rule book metric. Kyle Larson, the new Chase standings leader by one point, joins Logano on the front row.
Ryan Blaney and Carson Hocevar both have said they are past the fracas that occurred at Bristol last week. Blaney was still sporting a black eye from the fight with Hocevar.
