We got a pair of photo finishes in races this past weekend, with NASCAR giving us one for the ages.
At Kansas Speedway, both Kyle Larson and Chris Buescher appeared to hit the finish line at the same time. But the photo finish review revealed that Larson crossed 0.001 seconds (!!) ahead of Buescher at the AdventHealth 400.
How did Buescher react? He was totally cool about it, tweeting that he should have stuck his tongue out like Lightning McQueen did in Cars.
Very funny, and as Buescher noted in other posts on X (formerly Twitter), he had no hard feelings toward Larson after the race.
Guess I should’ve pulled a Lightning McQueen and stuck out my tongue https://t.co/WsCbJzcnDM

To be clear for y’all… no shade at @KyleLarsonRacin. We were banging doors all the way to the checkered. He’s one heck of a racer, and that was just two drivers going for the trophy 👍🏼
