Congratulations to Chase Elliott #9, his crew and Hendrick Motorsports on finishing 2nd at Kansas and advancing into the Round of 8 of the Chase. Next race is Martinsville Sunday 10-28. The first of 3 races to determine the Final 4 that will battle it out at Homestead! The race was exiting and tense as the 12 drivers that still had a shot raced and jockeyed for every point they could get. There were a few late wrecks that raised the intensity, but in the end Chase Eilliott’s 2nd place finish was enough to get him through to the round of 8!
