I'll pick Kyle Larson.

[big mac]

#18 for 2 stage wins including 3rd stage.

[4me2c]

#19 just missed so He Bee MAD... Took the "Freaky Fast" nic from Harvick... ;)

[dara]

Stage 1 will end under caution, William Byron wins the stage, followed by Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch. #9 in the pits after a crash.

Probably will miss the ends of the next two stages... have a family event tonight, so have a great Labor Day, if you are here in the US.

[dara]

Elliott ran out of time, so hes out of this race.

[dara]

At least Chase Elliott had enough points, will probably advance without a win. My kiss of death for Larson, will have to have good placements to advance, with 3 laps down.

Next race 9/11, Kansas.

[dara]

I thought Larson was a dead duck, but he apparently was lucky dog three times to get him on the lead lap. Too bad for Chase Elliott and Kevin Harvick, and I see that Kyle Busch also blew an engne.
