Kurt Busch Fastest in Dover Happy Hour (Full Results + Ten-Lap Averages)

Kurt Busch #78 Car

The 78 team has definitely carried their momentum into Dover this weekend because Kurt Busch is fast once again. After posting the 5th-fastest lap in Practice #2 earlier today, Busch went out and ran the quickest lap in Happy Hour, just barely quicker than Matt Kenseth. Once again this practice was pretty un-eventful, but that’s probably a good thing for fantasy racers. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the full speed chart.

Matt Kenseth #20 Car

The first of two practice sessions at Dover International Speedway is now completed and it was two-time Dover winner Matt Kenseth who put down the quickest lap. There were no majors happenings to report but some notable drivers seemed to have been struggling, including Tony Stewart (29th), Jeff Gordon (27th), and Martin Truex, Jr. (20th).

Kahne and Kurt Busch Quick Again

Charlotte Practice #3 (Happy Hour) Results + Ten-Lap Averages

Kasey Kahne #5 Car

The Happy Hour speed chart looked somewhat similar to the chart from the earlier practice on Saturday with Kasey Kahne and Kurt Busch ending up on top once again. Between the two sessions, Danica Patrick changed an engine, and then Trevor Bayne blew his engine halfway through the final practice of the weekend. Those two will have to start from the rear of the field on Sunday. Jeff Burton had an oil line issue but was able to get it fixed and get back out on the track. He will not have to go to the rear. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the full speed chart.

Jeff Gordon #24 Car

All Sprint Cup on-track practice is now complete for this weekend’s Toyota Owners 400, and now all we have is qualifying before the race on Saturday night.

Matt Kenseth #20 Car

All practice sessions are now completed at Kansas Speedway for the weekend and it will be interesting to see how the speeds transfer over to the STP 400 race on Sunday. During the practices on Saturday, the track and was cool along with the air, and it is expected to warm up on Sunday for the race. Teams will probably have to adjust on the changing weather and a wrong adjustment could ruin their day pretty quickly. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the full results chart below.

The first of two Saturday practice sessions at Kansas Speedway just got over with, and although there may be a little surprise at who was on top of the board, the normal names were littered through the rest of the top 10. The Happy Hour practice session will go from 12:30 to 1:20 this afternoon (eastern time) and the track conditions during that session should be more like race conditions. Important happenings: nothing major to report. Be sure to remember that Jeff Gordon is going to the back because of his wreck in qualifying.

Greg Biffle #16 Car

If anyone was worried about Greg Biffle starting in the back on Sunday, he may have put those worries to rest today by being the fastest man in practice. The #16 Ford did have an engine failure on Friday, but it has been wicked fast ever since. Another nice surprise this weekend has been A.J. Allmendinger, as you can see below. There were no major happenings in practice to report. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the practice speeds chart.

Kyle Busch Paces Bristol Happy Hour [Full Results + Ten-Lap Averages]

Surprise, surprise, Kyle Busch was fast once again in the final practice session of the weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway. Happy Hour was pretty uneventful, and there were minimal surprises. The most unexpected thing that happened was that David Gilliland was able to post a pretty fast lap. He qualified 14th on Friday, so you may want to think of him as a (very deep) sleeper option on Sunday. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the practice speeds chart.

JRG Dominates Practice #2 At Bristol [Full Results + Ten-Lap Averages]

Kyle Busch #18 Car

It was the “Joe Gibbs Racing Show” at Bristol Motor Speedway Saturday morning with Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth, and Denny Hamlin posting the three fastest laps of the one-hour session. Some important things to note: Brad Keselowski had a vibration early on in the session, as did Jimmie Johnson. The latter thought it may have been a loose wheel, and if I hear anything more about Keselowski I will update this post. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the practice speeds chart.

Truex Paces Field In Vegas Happy Hour [Full Results + Ten-Lap Averages]

Martin Truex, Jr. #56 Car

Happy Hour was a little more eventful than the first practice session on Saturday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Within the first couple of minutes, Denny Hamlin spun out coming off of turn 4, although it didn’t appear he had much (if any) damage. After that, the practice was pretty tame. The track conditions during Happy Hour were more like what the race should be like on Sunday, at least when the green flag waves. The ten-lap average chart can be found below the practice speeds chart.
