Active/Next Gen Cup Track Stats: Kansas

Last week at Bristol we got to see domination by Kyle Larson, but also hardly any meaningful passing in what most non-Kyle Larson fans thought was a snoozer of a race. Now, we head to the site of probably the best race and finish of the year, Kansas. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Kansas Speedway ranging from Most Wins to Best Average Finishes by starting position in the Next Gen era. So read and enjoy these fun fact track stats!
In this post you will only find active and Next Gen stats, if you are looking for all-time stats check out my previous article All-Time Cup Track Stats: Kansas.

Active means any driver who started a race in the 2024 Cup Series season.
