Due to severe weather in the area of Kansas Speedway on Friday evening, NASCAR canceled all on-track activity at the 1.5-mile speedway, which means there will be no practice or qualifying for Saturday’s NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series Kansas Lottery 300.
As a result, the starting lineup was set by the rule book, which lines the field up by order of their performance metric results.
Carson Kvapil, driving the No. 1 JR Motorsports Chevrolet that Connor Zilisch won in last week at Bristol, will start from the first starting spot, while NASCAR Cup Series full-timer William Byron will lineup alongside on the outside of the front row.
