The Low Tier – Charlotte
Michael McDowell – Michael McDowell has had a tough 2019 and at Charlotte I would view him as a mid-twenties driver. At Charlotte, McDowell has finished in the teens in 3 of the last 4 races. Last spring, he finished 18th and had a 23rd place average running position. In fall 2017, McDowell didn’t have a good race and finished 35th. While he was running in 23rd on lap 117 he spun which doomed him to his poor result. In the two races prior to that he had results of 14th and 19th.

Matt Tifft – At Charlotte, I would look for Matt Tifft to be a mid to high-twenties driver. This year at 1.5 mile tracks his average finish is 26.75. At Charlotte, Tifft obviously has no top series starts under his belt. Last year at Charlotte in the Xfinity Series in RCR equipment he finished 9th.
Landon Cassill – At Charlotte, I would view Landon Cassill as a high-twenties to low-thirties driver. I will note it’s safer to lean more towards the low-thirties. This year at 1.5 mile tracks his average finish is 33.25 and in 3 of the 4 races he’s finished between 30th and 34th. At Charlotte, Cassill has finished between 25th to 28th in 4 of the last 5 races. Last spring, in his lone Charlotte start in his current ride he he finished 28th and had a 31st place average running position.
Corey LaJoie – At Charlotte, I would view Corey LaJoie as a high-twenties driver. This year at 1.5 mile tracks he has a 26.5 average finish and in 3 of the 4 races he’s finished between 27th to 29th. At Charlotte, LaJoie has four starts under his belt and has a 30.3 average finish. Last spring he finished 26th, but take note he finished 4 laps down. In 2017 he had results of 28th and 32nd.
Ross Chastain – Expectations need to be really low for Ross Chastain. This year at 1.5 mile tracks all four of his results are between 29th to 33rd. If you pick him prepare for another result around that range, unless the attrition rate is high. Last year in the Coca Cola 600 he finished 24th.
