I started this blog to provide a casual, recreational level of fantasy NASCAR advice and discussion. I've been playing these contests for a number of years and am annoyed by lineup sellers and groups of players using the same lineup. I'm hoping to give the casual player some help in building solid lineups that can beat that annoying crowd most of the time. I'm not a "tout" and don't do this for a living, so proceed accordingly. I hope you enjoy the discussion here and Good Luck!
The XFinity race shows once again the chaos and randomness that comes with plate track racing. There really is almost no predictability to what will happen and luck is the biggest factor in these races. And, whatever you do, don't bother watching the in race fantasy standings because nothing matters until the last lap.
It's really hard for me to pinpoint particular drivers this week, so I'm going to take a more broad picture and overall approach/strategy approach.
Good luck everyone, but don't overdo it this weekend.

WOW! What a race that was in Chicago. If you didn't love that racing action, something is wrong. I don't like Kyle Busch by any means, but that was still an awesome finish.
Sorry to all who checked for updates last Saturday and Sunday before the Chicago race. I got sick and just didn't have the time or energy to do the research and work I need to do to write a good strategy article. I'll be back with a full complement of material this week. Moving on to Daytona, I've mentioned several times over the life of this blog that I don't like plate track races. Luck and random stuff determines so much in these races. It takes away from the advantage that we from outworking and outsmarting the competition the other weeks. That said, we'll plow ahead and do our best. I'm going to start with my first set of Daytona notes and then revisit a list I did earlier this year of things to remember for plate track races: First Set of Daytona Notes
Plate Track Approach -- I'm going to re-post what I wrote back in February before the Daytona 500. Bottom line - I like to pull back on plate track weekends by playing less money and doing more tournaments than cash games. Also, do yourself a favor and don't check your score often (if at all) during the race. You can quite literally go from first to worst or worst to first when the next "Big One" strikes. Nothing will be decided until the very end in this one. [Originally posted in February 2018] -- With cars hitting the track for practice, qualifying and "The Clash" this coming weekend, it's time to start thinking about lineups for the Daytona 500. First a few general concepts to remember for plate track races:
