Kahne closes on Rankings top 30

Kasey Kahne closed in on a spot in the top 30 of the Castrol EDGE Rankings with a commanding NASCAR Truck Series victory at Darlington last weekend. The 30-year-old American was due to have a week off from his regular Sprint Cup activities, but instead accepted a ride with rival Kyle Busch's squad and promptly won on what was only his second Truck Series start since 2004. Kahne's victory did not improve his 35th position in the Castrol EDGE Rankings, but it did boost his score, meaning that he heads to this weekend's Bristol Sprint Cup event with a chance of overhauling Tony Kanaan, Rubens Barrichello, Matt Kenseth, Clint Bowyer and Ryan Hunter-Reay as he bids to crack the top 30 for the first time since last August.
