Denny Hamlin and Jared Allen are back from a historic race at Kansas.

Denny had an upfront view of the closest finish ever as Kyle Larson beat Chris Buescher by .001 seconds. Sunday's race had the perfect amount of tire falloff to make the race interesting. Is there anything different Buescher could have done to hold off Larson? Timing and scoring is not the same as the official finish line. Does NASCAR need better cameras, and why isn’t the finish line not straight? 

Denny had an eventful day on pit road. Could Denny have made it on fuel if the race stayed green? Or was Martin Truex Jr. going to pass him? Denny explains why he took the inside lane on the restart. 

Kansas might be the perfect track for the Next Gen car. Noah Gragson scored an impressive top-10 finish. Plus, is this the final year of throwback paint schemes at Darlington?
