Some drivers to watch for are as follows:
A.J. Allemendinger: STP has decided to partner with the historical No. 43 and Allemdinger's Ford features a modern replica of the 1972 Petty Blue and Day-Glo Red that was once driven by NASCAR'S King of racing, Richard Petty. Allemendinger has been racing in NASCAR for three years and is looking for his first NASCAR career win. In Kansas, he's finished in the top-ten twice and today he starts 26th in the line up. Last weekend, he started second for the Coca Cola 600 at Charlotte and after a solid run, he finished in fifth.
Joey Logano: The youngest driver in Sprint Cup and pilot of the number 20 Home Depot car has finally turned 21; his luck on the track has also changed. On Friday, Logano was the fastest in practice and today, he starts fifth in the line up. Logano has one career win for NASCAR in New Hampshire; last weekend, he finished third in the Coca Cola 600. Although he hasn't finished in a top spot in Kansas to date, Logano has finished in top five 11 times and top-ten 25 times. Today could be the start of higher finishes.
