Kentucky? How should I approach it from a fantasy NASCAR perspective?

This week NASCAR’s going to race at Kentucky Speedway for the first time. It’s full of unknowns but don’t hit the panic button fantasy racers.

The philosophy of ifantasyrace.com has always been to approach fantasy racing from a “Keep It Simple Stupid” perspective. Trust me I’m not hear to complicate things for anyone.

Here’s the formula I’m using to approach Kentucky to get good fantasy results:

KS Performance+ MI Performance = A good fantasy day at Kansas.

This week at Kentucky I’m really going to focus on two things. What happened at Kansas and what happened at Michigan. Those are the two most recent intermediate tracks NASCAR’s visited and I think they hold the key to fantasy success this week.

In fantasy racing I like to use fresh data. I like it because it gives me a competitive advantage over my competitors and quite frankly it’s fresh on my mind. You’re a smart fantasy racer and that’s why you check out Jordan’s post happy hour content. You read it because it’s the freshest data available on race weekend and it gives you a real-time perspective on what you should expect.

I could tell you to study Kansas, California, Chicagoland, and Michigan but I’m not here to complicate simplicity. I could also tell you to study the Nationwide series results since they’ve visited Kentucky for about the last decade but I don’t remember Jimmie Johnson in to many of those races.

This shouldn’t be a hard fantasy NASCAR week for anyone. Honestly I’m not worried about it and you shouldn’t be either.
