NASCAR Cup Series: Coke Zero 400 DFS Plays
The NASCAR Cup Series is at Dayton International Speedway Saturday for the Coke Zero 400. We had a crazy race Friday, where the last five laps seemed to take 2 hours to finish and the results showed a very unusual top-10 result. Saturday, just like Friday, Daytona could offer the best chance for an […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: Wawa 250 DFS Plays
Daytona has finally come back around, starting with Friday’s Wawa 250 at Daytona International Speedway. While the summer classic Xfinity race doesn’t have the same height of stakes as the Cup regular-season finale, the excitement and intrigue will still be on full display. With four races left in the regular season for the Xfinity season, […]

The race for the final playoff spot appears to be a two-car showdown between Ryan Blaney and Martin Truex Jr. Both winless heading into the final three races of the regular season, each has a reason to like their odds to secure the first win of the season for their respective teams.

NASCAR Cup Series: FireKeepers Casino 400 DFS Plays
Michigan has been a personal playground for Ford teams for the past eight years. Whether it has been Team Penske or Stewart-Haas, pole positions and wins have come in spades here for the blue oval. This new car has taken that advantage away this weekend, and throughout the year, Toyota has shown a larger dominance […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: New Holland 250 DFS Plays
The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Michigan Saturday for the New Holland 250. For the oval tracks of 1.5 miles and above, JR Motorsports has been the clear cut class of the field. While it appears that the Kaulig teams have closed the gap on speed based on practice, I expect the JR Motorsports teams […]

Racing at the famed “Brickyard,” dubbed so by the 3-foot wide line of bricks that marks the start/finish line, is not quite the same as the prestigious Brickyard 400 for many drivers or fans.

The “Tricky Triangle” hosts the Top 4 series of NASCAR this weekend with the ARCA race on Friday and a double-header of action on Saturday, culminated by the Cup series on Sunday.

NASCAR Cup Series: Quaker State 400 DFS Plays
When the series was here in March, we discovered just how similar to Daytona and Talladega this track became after the remodel. And true to superspeedway form, the superb “plate” drivers did extremely well. The Xfinity series race showed that this weekend as well, with superspeedway ace Austin Hill leading a lot of laps and […]

NASCAR Cup Series: Kwik Trip 250 DFS Plays
This race is an absolute and complete fade of dominator points, as it has the fewest laps of any race on the schedule. For Larson or Elliott to pay off, they would need to lead every lap and win, which isn’t very realistic. I may play minimal Elliott in multi-entry gpp, but the strategy you […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: Henry 180 DFS Plays
The NASCAR Xfinity Series is in Wisconsin this week for the Neyr 180 at Road American.

There are a few Cup series drivers in this race headlined by Kyle Larson. After qualifying […]

NASCAR Cup Series: Ally 400 DFS Plays
Rain washed away the back end of qualifying on Saturday, so the drivers will start based on their first run placements. Kyle Busch tagged the wall during his first run and will start last, making him an absolute lock in cash games and a near lock in GPP with only contrarian lines fading him. I […]

After a two-week hiatus, the NASCAR Xfinity Series is back for some Saturday racing with the Tennessee Lottery 250 at Nashville Superspeedway.

NASCAR Cup Series: Save Mart 350 DFS Plays
The Cup Series is back on the west coast and returns to a road course track for the third time this season. As always, with road course races, dominator points and fastest lap points take a backseat to potential point differential. Kyle Larson won this race pretty handily last season, and I expect more of […]

The Cup Series makes its first trip to the St. Louis area track as a replacement for one of last year’s Pocono races. The Fords looked really fast in practice, followed by the Toyotas and then the Chevrolets. While I will be targeting Fords for my dominator points, the Chevrolets leave us with some tasty […]
