Kyle Busch on the Front Row: Starting Line-up for Kansas NASCAR Truck Series 2021 Race
This weekend, the NASCAR Truck Series will race at the Kansas Speedway. In the build-up, to the race weekend, the sport revealed the grid for the coming race. It will be a great start to the race weekend for Kyle Busch Motorsports with John Hunter Nemechek on the pole. To make matters even better, teammate Kyle Busch is sitting alongside him on the front row.
The Toyotas ran riot as Ben Rhodes, Johnny Sauter and Chandler Smith make it an all-Toyota Top 5. Todd Gilliland in the Ford managed to break the Toyota domination for a bit. However, he is ahead of another Toyota in the form of Austin Hill. Hill shares the fourth row with Sheldon Creed in the first of the Chevrolets.
Zane Smith starts 9th ahead of Stewart Friesen, Carson Hocevar, and Matt Crafton. Tyler Ankrum and Derek Kraus make up row 7 ahead of Raphael Lessard and Austin Wayne Self. Christian Eckes starts in the 17th ahead of Tanner Gray and Spencer Davis, while Hailie Deegan rounds out the Top 20.

How does everyone else line up behind Nemechek and Kyle Busch?
Danny Bohn and Timothy Peters start in 21st and 22nd places, with Chase Purdy and Kris Wright behind them. Next on the grid are Timmy Hill and Brett Moffitt, ahead of Spencer Boyd and Dawson Cram. Rounding out the Top 30 are a disappointed Grant Enfinger, and Chase Briscoe.
Behind them are Ryan Truex and Bret Holmes in 31st and 32nd. Row 17 comprises of Ryan Reed and Ross Chastain, ahead of Tate Fogleman and Jordan Anderson. Finally, Norm Benning, Jesse Iwuji and Jennifer Jo Cobb bring up the rear. Admittedly, Cobb is all alone on the final row, as there is no driver confirmed in the #34 car alongside her.
On a different note, Kyle Busch will be eager to pick up where he left off. In all his Truck Series starts, Busch has always finished in the Top 2. Now, he will be hoping to repeat that feat at the Kansas Speedway.
