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!

Much more to come Friday after practice and qualifying, but here's some mid-week notes to get you started for the Kentucky race:
  • Harvick, Truex and Kyle Busch have been animals on the 1.5 intermediate tracks this year.  Each is priced at $11K or more on DK this weekend and all are maxed out at $12.5K on FD.  That's appropriate in my view.
  • Truex and Kyle Busch dominated here last year.  Truex won from the 2nd starting spot and led 152 of 274 laps.  Busch started from pole, finished 5th and led 112 of 274 laps.
  • Also on Kyle Busch, he's finished in the Top 10 in 6 of the 7 Cup races at Kentucky.  He's never finished worse than 12th.  And he has two wins.
  • Harvick has not been great at Kentucky.  In his four years at SHR, he has finished 7th one time, 8th one time and 9th twice.  In 2017, he started from pole and led 128 of 267 laps, but finished 9th.
  • Brad Keselowski is one to watch here.  The has two wins in the last six races -- although two of those came before the recent repaves.  He did win in 2016 while leading 75 laps.  Last year, however, he was in an accident and finished 39th.  He has dominator potential and comes at a sizable salary discount off the Big Three.
  • Joey Logano has finished in the Top 10 in four of the last five Kentucky races.
  • Jamie McMurray has finished 7th the last two years and may be a good mid-range option depending on qualifying position.
  • Bubba Wallace ran well last year in his only Kentucky Cup race.  He started 17th and finished 11th.
​Check back for more Friday night.
