New Hampshire Personal / Comparative Fantasy NASCAR Values

Drivers have two types of fantasy value every week. They have Personal Fantasy Value, and Comparative Fantasy Value.

Personal Fantasy Value is an estimation of how good the driver is at a certain track, compared to the other tracks on the circuit.

Comparative Fantasy Value is an estimation of how good the driver compares to the competition at a certain track.

Let’s talk about Kurt Busch’s New Hampshire fantasy values…..

His Personal Fantasy Value is Medium. At New Hampshire he’s a three-time champion and has run well recently but quite frequently he’s come home with misleading results. It seems to just be one of those tracks that has his number. Since 2011 he hasn’t finished better than 10th. For a driver of his caliber this is not a good track for him.

His Comparative Fantasy Value is High. I expect him to run well on Sunday. This July he was around 6th place good before he had problems. Last fall he was running in 5th before he ran out of gas in the closing laps. When you pair that along with his recent solid showing at Richmond I don’t see any reason why he won’t have a good performance.
