Dover FedEx 400 Fantasy NASCAR Front Runner Rankings
Clint Bowyer – Clint Bowyer currently has four consecutive top ten finishes at Dover. The only other driver who also has four consecutive top tens is Jimmie Johnson. Over these four races he’s scored the second most points, has a 9th place average running position and a 7.0 average finish. Last fall at Dover Clint Bowyer started in second and finished 9th. He could’ve potentially finished slightly better but he had to come in for a gas and go under green with about 25 laps remaining (5.5 average running position). In the 2012 spring race he started in 4th, had an average running position of 6th and finished 5th. From a career perspective Clint Bowyer has done a good job avoiding trouble at Dover. He’s raced here 15 times, has 7 top tens and has only finished worse than 17th twice. (Yahoo! A Driver)
Martin Truex Jr. – Martin Truex Jr. has one career win in the Sprint Cup series and it came here in spring 2007. What’s notable about that win was that it was in the first race in the COT here. Perhaps the first race in the Gen6 car might do the trick. Last year at Dover Martin Truex Jr. was very good. He had finishes of 6th & 7th and had the 9th best driver rating. One strength of his at Dover is his qualifying prowess. In the last six races he has two poles and a 5.7 average starting position. Look for Martin Truex Jr. to be a contender in the FedEx 400.

Kurt Busch – Kurt Busch has some dark horse / sleeper fantasy NASCAR potential at Dover. The last time he raced here in a good car (fall 2011) he led 90 laps and took home the trophy. Last season in sub par equipment he finished 23rd and 24th. From a career standpoint Dover has been a volatile track for him. He’s raced here 25 times and has only finished in the top ten 32% percent of the time. In over half his races he’s finished outside the top fifteen. Recently though with the exception of 2012 he’s been pretty good. Between 2009 and 2011 at Dover he had an 8th place average finish and a 9th place average running position. (Yahoo! B Driver)
