Kentucky Fantasy NASCAR Mid Pack Predictions
Ryan Newman – At Kentucky, I’m really not too optimistic about Ryan Newman. This year at 1.5 mile tracks he has a 17.3 average finish and a 16.7 average running position. On Saturday night, I’ll view him as a high-teens to low-twenties driver. At Kentucky, Newman currently has back to back results in the low-twenties. Last year, Newman didn’t have a race to brag about. He finished 21st, had a 19th place average running position and earned the 18th best driver rating. In 2017 at Kentucky, Newman didn’t run well and finished 22nd. Additionally, he had a 21st place average running position and earned the 23rd best driver rating. In 2016 at Kentucky, Newman was able to stretch his fuel and as a result he finished 3rd. Over the last quarter of the race he was a consistent top ten performer. Realistically performance wise I would say he was really about 8th place good.

Daniel Hemric – At Kentucky, I would look for Daniel Hemric to be a a high-teens to low-twenties driver. He’s had a recent uptick in performance so I wouldn’t be surprised if he finishes marginally better than that range. Over the last three races at 1.5 mile tracks he has a 19.3 average finish and a 20.3 average running position. Last year at Kentucky in the lower series in RCR equipment he finished 2nd.
Matt Tifft – Matt Tifft, hasn’t been all that bad at 1.5 mile tracks this year (in his tier) and on Saturday night I would look for him to be a low to mid-twenties driver. In 3 of the last 4 races at 1.5 mile tracks he’s finished between 20th to 24th. Look for him to finish around that range again on Saturday night. Last year at Kentucky in the Xfinity Series he finished 11th.
