NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas Speedway renamed Hollywood Casino 400 presented by ESPN BET

Kansas Speedway’s NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs race on Sept. 29 has a new name. The track announced today that the race will now be called the Hollywood Casino 400 presented by ESPN BET.

ESPN BET is PENN Entertainment’s online sportsbook that is live in Kansas. Additionally, Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway is rebranding its physical sportsbook to become “ESPN BET Sportsbook” this month. The casino has been the entitlement partner of Kansas Speedway’s fall NASCAR Cup Series race since 2011, and the excitement it produces continues to grow.

“The name may be new, but our fans should expect the same incredible racing this track continues to provide,” said Kansas Speedway President Pat Warren. “The Hollywood Casino 400 presented by ESPN BET will undoubtedly generate the adrenaline-pumping drama that’s become the hallmark of Kansas Speedway.”

Kansas Speedway was the site of the closest NASCAR Cup Series finish in history in May when Kyle Larson edged Chris Buescher for the win in a photo finish for the ages. That sets the stage for the Hollywood Casino 400 presented by ESPN BET on Sept. 29, the opening race of the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs’ Round of 12.

That race will cap an incredible weekend of racing at Kansas Speedway, featuring four races over three days. It begins Friday, Sept. 27, with a NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series/ARCA Menards Series doubleheader and continues Saturday, Sept. 28, with the NASCAR Xfinity Series’ Kansas Lottery 300.

Tickets for all races are on sale and can be purchased at www.kansasspeedway.com.
