Daniel Suarez Familiar With Texas Success

Daniel Suarez has progressively improved every time he has been on the Texas track over the past couple of seasons. He finished tenth last year in the Fall race but had top-five closing stage from the end of Stage 2. The No. 99 Chevy won the qualifier to the All-Star Race in May and nearly […]

Kyle Larson Starts Ninth From Texas On Sunday

Kyle Larson is nestled with a few Chevy's and a couple of teammates in ninth for the start of the AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 500 on Sunday.

Denny Hamlin Loves Intermediate Tracks Like Texas

Denny Hamlin over the past three seasons has been the most proficient driver on intermediate tracks. Texas is no exception as the 1.5-mile track does set up well for the Joe Gibbs Racing driver.

Chase Elliott In Solid Spot At Texas

Chase Elliott begins sixth for the race at Texas on Sunday but more importantly the No. 9 car is not too far from William Byron (third) and Kyle Larson (ninth). It would not be a surprise if the Hendrick Motorsports cars draft off each other a good deal during Stage 1. The other good bit […]

Michael McDowell Not A Surprise At Texas

William Byron Starts Third For Texas Race

William Byron is starting to get back to that consistency from last season. Remember when the Hendrick Motorsports driver had 14 top-tens in 15 races. Now, maybe that level is not quite attainable now. However, Byron has been better of late and qualifying third at Texas only enhances his chances. It does not hurt that […]

Joey Logano Nearly Takes Pole At Texas

Joey Logano probably thought he had the pole position at Texas but his former teammate, Brad Keselowski, was just a tiny bit faster.
