Bristol Irwin Tools Night Race: Fantasy NASCAR “Top Tier Elite” Picks
Brad Keselowski – Keselowski has back to back wins at Bristol but you can put an asterisks next to those now because they don’t mean anything fantasy wise for this race. Earlier this year Brad Keselowski won the race by being fast on the high line. That’s out of play for the Irwin Tools Night Race. Keselowski’s first race at Bristol was in 2010 so he’s never experienced the old track. I don’t think this will be a problem for him though. He’s a smart driver and has the right amount of calculated “hate” that it takes to be good here. No driver has been better than him this summer and I predict he’ll win the Bristol Irwin Tools Night Race. (Yahoo! A Driver)

Dale Earnhardt Jr. – With Bristol going back to old school racing look for Dale Earnhardt Jr. to be one of the drivers to beat. He’s a driver who never really took to the progressively banked surface. Prior to the multi-grooving Junior was money in the bank at Bristol. In the last 11 races on the old surface Earnhardt Jr. had a win, 8 top tens and an average finish of 7.1. The grinding down won’t throw him for a loop, look for it to help him. (Yahoo! B Driver)

Matt Kenseth – Matt Kenseth was good on both the progressively banked Bristol and the old single grooved Bristol. On the multi-grooved surface he had six straight top tens. On the old surface (single groove) his last four finishes were 1st, 3rd, 1st and 11th. It should be noted that both of his wins were in the Bristol Night Race. In the last 11 races on the old one groove surface Kenseth had nine top tens and an average finish of 5.7. As long as he can avoid bad luck he should be very good in the Irwin Tools Night Race.
