New Hampshire Lenox Industrial Tools 301 Scouting Report
How to make an informed pick for the New Hampshire Lenox Industrial Tools 301
1. The most important variable to study this week to make an informed pick is to study drivers track history. I would recommend studying the last three seasons specifically.
2. Starting up front is important at New Hampshire. Track position has been everything this season. Cautions have been rare and because of this it’s important that drivers start up front. This is a relatively short race and there won’t be a lot of pit stops. Drivers won’t have time to hop out of their hot rods and play www.partybingo.com. They’ll need quick concise pit stops to maintian their track position.
3. Practice is the third most important variable this week. There will be long green flag runs at New Hampshire and because of this it’s important to have drivers who are fast over the long runs. How do you find out who’s fast? Make sure you read ifantasyrace.com’s weekend content.
4. Study how drivers have run at similar tracks. There’s no track that a clone of New Hampshire but there are three that I would classify as similar. Richmond doesn’t look like New Hampshire but there’s no doubt in my mind there similar. Back in the old car days when they had track type dedicated chassis’s Kurt Busch won at Richmond and during the post race interview teammate Mark Martin expressed how happy he would be to drive that car the following week at New Hampshire. Phoenix is similar to Richmond, in my content earlier this year I explained why I believe it to be a reverse Richmond, thus it’s similar to New Hampshire. Martinsville is shaped similar but it’s a half size New Hampshire.
Important Race Notes:
– AJ Allmendinger will not be racing at New Hampshire. He’ll be replaced by Sam Hornish Jr. If AJ’s B test fails it’s likely we’ll see Hornish drive this car many more times this season.
– Brian Vickers will once again be piloting the #55 this week. Vickers has been in three races this season and so far he’s finished in the top five in two of them.
