Logano vs. Kenseth: All’s Fair in Chase-Racing

By Jared Turner After locking horns with Matt Kenseth at Kansas while battling for the lead in the closing laps, Joey Logano was unapologetic about spinning the Joe Gibbs Racing driver and costing him a win that would have punched Kenseth’s ticket to the next round of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. While Kenseth – who was clearly blocking Logano – refused to take any blame for the contact that sent his No. 20 car spinning, Logano refused to offer any regrets. And why should Logano have regrets? When two guys are racing that hard for the lead at such…

Logano turns Kenseth, wins Kansas Chase race in overtime

Oct. 18, 2015 By Reid Spencer NASCAR Wire Service KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Block me once, and I’ll cut you some slack. Block me twice — and it’s “Gotcha.” That, in essence, was the conversation on Joey Logano’s team radio after Logano spun race leader Matt Kenseth in Turn 1 with less than five laps left in the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. Logano went on to win the race after a green-white-checkered-flag restart that sent the race two laps past its scheduled distance of 267 laps. The driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford has monopolized the Contender Round…

Ugly Top 10 Keeps Jeff Gordon in title hunt

As poorly as Jeff Gordon’s car was handling on Sunday during his last run at Kansas Speedway, the driver of the No. 24 Chevrolet was in danger of losing touch with the top contenders in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. But Gordon persevered, salvaging a 10th-place finish that left him sixth in the Chase standings — but with no margin for error as the series moves to Talladega next Sunday. “We were absolutely as far off as you could be,” Gordon said of his balky Chevy. “I don’t know. The thing qualified amazing, and ever since we put it in…

Kansas Preview: Many Chase Drivers Want to Seal Berth Before ‘Dega

By Jared Turner After a wild start to the Contender Round of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, it’s on to Kansas Speedway for Race No. 5 of the Chase and Race No. 2 of three in this round. With Joey Logano having won at Charlotte Motor Speedway and punched his proverbial ticket to the next round, he’s the only one of the 12 remaining title contenders who can breathe easily heading into Sunday’s Hollywood Casino 400. The 11 remaining Chase drivers all still have work to do, as none are assured of joining Logano in the Eliminator 8. However, some…

Five Lessons Learned: Kenseth’s Hole Might Be Too Deep

By Jared Turner Overlook Logano At Your Own Risk While the big story of the past few weeks and actually the past few months has been the dominance of Joe Gibbs Racing, along with Kevin Harvick's remarkable drive to victory in a must-win scenario at Dover, Joey Logano has quietly remained a consistent frontrunner. There was nothing quiet about Logano's performance, however, at Charlotte where he crushed the competition -- Harvick and the JGR drivers included. How stout was Logano on Sunday? He led 227 of 334 laps and was never challenged by second-place Harvick near the end. The best news of…
