How did Kyle Busch, Joey Logano, and the other drivers perform?

Before the race began, Logano confessed that he could be at a disadvantage. Eventually, he managed to figure things out and get his car moving a little.

Entering the ice rink, almost everyone tripped over each other in a desperate bid to come out ahead. However, it was Truex Jr, the defending NASCAR Cup champion, who emerged unscathed. In the end, he won the race and left everyone else scrambling behind him. Logano ended up second, while Busch was third and Harvick fourth. As for the real NASCAR championship, it was Logano who triumphed.
