Kansas served up pure chaos and the Chain Gang brought the heat. Chase Elliott pulled a full Batman, storming from 10th to win in a green-white-checkered stunner, while Denny Hamlin and Bubba Wallace reenacted a dysfunctional family barbecue... complete with door-slamming, finger-flipping, and spilled milk.
We break down whether Hamlin should’ve played team owner or lone wolf, why Bubba’s “crowd-the-boss” strategy opened the door for Elliott’s miracle win, and how Toyota managed to turn strength in numbers into a demolition derby.
Plus: Zane Smith turned his car into a Matchbox stunt toy, SVG fought through penalties and bad luck to sneak into the top 10, and the gang drops their always-unfiltered race ratings (spoiler: even Willie got soft and went full 90%). If you like your race recaps with ribeye jokes, Batman analogies, and just the right amount of trash talk, this episode’s your happy place
