Last week fans were hoping for an exciting race to take our minds off what we saw for the few races before the Easter break…. but we were let down once again as Austin Cindric won the race of two trains. Now, race fans look to an unlikely track to provide some exciting racing for the first time in over a month, Texas. Down below you will find different statistics for active drivers and Next Gen races of the NASCAR Cup series here at Texas Motor 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: Texas.

– Brad Keselowski is having a 2025 to forget so far, but NASCAR is heading to a track where he is on an impressive 6 race Top 10 streak. So maybe this can turn 2025 around for him.
