Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Michigan – Quicken Loans 400

Roush All The Way  I was hoping this weekend would be smooth sailing after all of the hiccups in Pocono, but that’s just not the case. Many teams had problems during the practice sessions on Friday with their tires blistering, and because of this Goodyear is giving them a new left-side tire. NASCAR is actually [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Pocono 400 Presented by #NASCAR

Sleeper Weekend in Pocono The Pocono 400 Presented by #NASCAR may end with surprises on Sunday because of two factors: this race is 100 miles shorter than a normal Pocono race, and the track has been repaved. The latter has caused cars to actually get faster as a fuel run goes on and track position will [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Dover – FedEx 400

We’re in Dover, Delaware this weekend for the FedEx 400 benefiting Autism Speaks at Dover International Speedway, “The Monster Mile”. There were two practice sessions this weekend (both on Friday) and you can find detailed reports about them as well as combined average [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Charlotte – Coca-Cola 600

A Seventh Time For “Five Time”? Not only was the practice schedule completely idiotic this weekend, but NASCAR.com had technical difficulties (surprised?) so fantasy racers are even more in the dark for this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600. No average speeds were available for the first practice on Saturday, and I consider Happy Hour speeds as worthless [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Darlington – Bojangles Southern 500

Can BK Make It Two Wins In A Row? This week the Sprint Cup series is at Darlington Raceway for the first and last time in the 2012 season. There are two things I can guarantee for Saturday night: we’ll see plenty of drivers making contact with the wall and we will see a whole [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Talladega – Aaron’s 499

Credit: Jamie Squire/Getty Images Get Out Your Dart Board This week’s article is going to be a little different than usual. These races at Talladega and Daytona really are a crap shoot, and anybody can win. Heck, even Dave Blaney finished 3rd here last fall. Below you will find my favorites, some “out of the [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Richmond – Capital City 400

“Epic Swag” Looking Good We’re going to have some good old fashioned Saturday night racing tomorrow night, so it’s fitting that Mark Martin and that #55 Toyota are fast…again. Just like in Phoenix, “Epic Swag” grabbed the pole for Saturday night’s race. Carl Edwards will start 2nd, followed by Kevin Harvick and the sudden qualifying [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Phoenix – Subway Fresh Fit 500 (Post Qualifying, Post Happy Hour)

Credit: Tyler Barrick/Getty Images for NASCAR Phoenix Is Still Jimmie’s House After a long, tiring, and exciting speedweeks in Daytona, the Sprint Cup Series has made the trek across the country to Phoenix for this year’s Subway Fresh Fit 500. After this race last season, in case you forgot, Phoenix International Raceway was completely repaved [...]

Fantasy NASCAR Predictions: Homestead – Ford 400 (Chase Race #10) (Post Qualifying)

And The 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Champion Is….. Three points, two drivers, one champion. Carl Edwards started off this weekend being fast in practice, and brought that over into qualifying where he won his third and final pole for this 2011 season. Martin Truex, Jr. will start beside Cousin Carl on Sunday, and for [...]
