Texas Fantasy NASCAR “The Low Tier”
Michael McDowell – Michael McDowell is often the best “Low Tier” driver, on Sunday at Texas I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the case again. In his last two races at 1.5 mile tracks he’s had results of 14th and 22nd. To conservatively project his fantasy value I would probably write him in for a low to mid-twenties finish. This spring at Texas Ty Dillon drove his #95 and finished 20th. In McDowell’s last four Texas races he’s finished between 30th and 34th. On Sunday McDowell is starting in 30th. In a place differential league that’s good because it gives him room to move forward. In practice McDowell shown good speed and he seemed pleased with his car.
Chris Buescher – Texas Native Chris Buescher will probably have low to mid-twenties fantasy value at Texas. Over the course of the season the #34 has improved. In the Chase at 1.5 mile tracks he has a 21.6 average finish. At Texas he has two starts under his belt and has come home with results of 28th and 30th. On Sunday I think he’ll definitely best that. In practice he showed good speed among the drivers in this tier.
Landon Cassill – Landon Cassill is one of the better “Low Tier” drivers at high-speed intermediate tracks. In the Chase at 1.5 mile tracks he has a 25th place average finish. Among drivers who are this deep on the depth-chart that isn’t bad. Currently at Texas Landon Cassill has back to back 25th place results. On Sunday he’s starting 24th.

Brian Scott – Brian Scott will likely be a high-twenties to low-thirties driver at Texas. In recent races at high-speed intermediate tracks that’s been his typical finish range. This spring at Texas, Scott started in 27th and finished 27th. Additionally in the race he earned the 29th best driver rating and had a 30th place average running position. Last fall in RCR equipment, which is better than what he currently drives he finished 14th.
