Chase drivers finished with 8 of the top 10 finishing positions leaving those drivers in a pretty good position moving forward. Chase drivers Ryan Newman and Matt Kenseth were involved in some contact which eventually lead to Matt Kenseth, who led 72 laps early, finishing in 42nd place and sitting in a dangerous position with Kansas and Talladega left in this round. Newman got away from the contact with minimal damage and ended up finishing in 15th. Kyle Busch was having a pretty good day until a pit road mishap where he and Kyle Larson made contact when they were both making second decision on whether to hit pit road or stay out on the track. Kyle attempted to make his way back through the field after his penalty for hitting the cone but eventually spun out and hit the wall due to some fluid on the track. He wasn't the only driver to hit the wall because of the fluid. Dale Earnhardt Jr. also hit the wall and leaving the #88 team with a 28th place finish. Dale and Kyle have a giant task in front of them but both thrive off of the pressure so be ready for some aggressive driving going into the next two races. This week NASCAR and the Chase for the Sprint Cup head to Kansas Speedway for the Hollywood Casino 400 on Sunday afternoon. It will be back to back weeks with a race on a mile and half "cookie cutter" track. Last weeks winner, Joey Logano, is also the defending champ of this race from 2014. He goes into this year's race locked into the Eliminator Round and with nothing to lose. The normal crop of...

Click Here to Purchase Lineups and Cheatsheet AAA 400 Dover International Speedway - Dover, DE Track Type/Length - 1 Mile Oval Conrete Short Track 24° Banking in the Turns - 9° on the Front & Back Stretch Matt Kenseth became the second Joe Gibbs Racing driver to lock his spot in the Contender Round of the Chase with a win at New Hampshire on Sunday. It was Kevin Harvick, needing a top finish, who dominated the race leading 216 laps. Unfortunately for the #4 team they came up 3 laps short on fuel and watched their Chase hopes fade away unless they can come up with a win at Dover in the elimination race this weekend. The standings have tightened up around the bubble with four drivers(Jamie McMurray, Dale Jr., Kyle Busch,Paul Menard) all within two points from 11th to 14th place. With only two drivers safe and on to the next round, the pressure multiplies in these elimination races. This week the drivers will face Dover International Speedway for the AAA 400 and first elimination race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup. Dover is a 1 mile concrete short track with 24° banking in the corners. This will be the second race here at Dover this year so we will look closely at how drivers fared back in May as well as the previous 5 races at this track. Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin and Martin Truex Jr. all lead over 90 laps back in May but it was Jimmie Johnson who took the lead with only 17 laps to go. He held on for the win which was his record 10th win at Dover in his career. Over the previous five races here at Dover, Hendrick Motorsports has, by far, the best history at the track. All three HMS drivers in the Chase(Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon, Dale Jr.) have a 10.4 or better average finish. This will be the first real test for the Chase teams where we will find out who are contenders and who are pretenders. On to the picks! Upper Tier Targets Jimmie Johnson DraftKings -...
Daily Fantasy NASCAR Picks for DraftKings & FantasyFeud – Sylvania 300

Chris is selling a cheatsheet and lineups for DraftKings & FantasyFeud for $5. Just scroll to the bottom of the picks. This is a separate service than our traditional monthly membership. Sylvania 300 New Hampshire Motor Speedway - Loudon, NH Track Type/Length - 1.058 Mile Oval Intermediate Track Joe Gibbs Racing continued to dominate in the first Chase race. Denny Hamlin punched his ticket into the Contender round by winning the opening race in Chicago last weekend. They made a late pit call to stay out which paid off big time at the end of the race after starting in the 29th position. Teammate Carl Edwards, who started in the 14th position, ended up finished 2nd right behind Hamlin. Matt Kenseth made it three JGR drivers in the top 5 with his 5th place finish at Chicago. Kyle Busch led 121 laps in the race but ended up in 9th and placing all JGR cars inside the top 10 to start the Chase. Team Penske also proved to be strong to kick off the Chase as both Keselowski and Logano spent the entire race inside the top 15 and finished 8th and 6th respectively. Stewart-Haas Racing teammates Kurt Busch and Kevin Harvick looked strong in the first race with Busch finishing in 3rd place. The same strong finish didn't happen for Harvick. On lap 138 Jimmie Johnson was pushed below the apron on a restart and came back up the track and slammed into Harvick which eventually caused a blown tire and a 42nd place finish for the #4 team. There was a confrontation post race between the two which lead to Harvick pushing Jimmie and leaving abruptly. While most believe the feud will carry over to New Hampshire, Harvick has way too much to lose this week to worry about Chicago. Now if it is the final lap and they are fighting for position don't expect Harvick to race clean vs. Johnson. Tensions are definitely growing as we are now in the playoffs and don't expect that to change anytime soon. This week the teams get ready for a second trip to New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the Sylvania 300 and race #2 in the Chase for the Sprint Cup. The track is very flat with around 12 degrees of banking in the corners....

Just scroll to the bottom of the picks. This is a separate service than our traditional monthly membership. Myafibrisk.com 400 Chicagoland Speedway - Joliet, IL Track Type/Length - 1.5 Mile D Shaped Oval Intermediate Track Joe Gibbs Racing capped off the regular season in style on Sunday. Matt Kenseth led 352 laps and took the checkered flag with Kyle Busch as the runner up. Denny Hamlin finished 6th and Carl Edwards in 11th place. They have been really strong for the last 1-2 months and head into the Chase with all four cars looking like contenders for the championship. It's hard to imagine but Hendrick Motorsports might be going into the Chase under the radar, or at least as underdogs. Hendrick will have three cars(Dale Jr., Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon) in the Chase and all finished in the top 10 at Richmond. Another team going into the Chase on a nice run is Team Penske. Both Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano have been strong all season and have the experience in the Chase to make it to the end. Joey made it through to the Final 4 last year and Brad Keselowski won the Championship back in 2012. This far into the Chase preview and I haven't mentioned Stewart Haas teammates Kevin Harvick and Kurt Busch. Harvick is the defending champ and will look to be only the 11th driver to win back to back championships. He has been the most consistent driver this year finishing top 5 in 18 of 26 races to go with 2 wins. Kurt Busch has won a championship back in 2004 so he knows how to make it happen in the 10 races down the stretch. Furniture Row Racing will send Martin Truex Jr. into the Chase with his 1 win and 17 top 10 finishes. He went through a tremendous stretch at the start of the season only finishing outside the top 10 once in his first 15 races but has only finished inside the top 10 3 times in the last 11 races. Richard Childress Racing will send 2 winless drivers(Ryan Newman & Paul Menard) to the Chase. Both have been extremely consistent throughout the season and were never outside looking in. Newman made...

Federated Auto Parts 400 Richmond International Raceway - Richmond, VA Track Type/Length - .75 Mile D Shaped Oval Short Track The Bojangles Southern 500 had a record breaking 18 cautions and ended being the longest race of the year. This was good thing for those who enjoyed the throwback paint schemes. Carl Edwards got over losing laps early in the race as he stayed out on older tires. His pit crew was on fire during the race and got him out of the pits in first on the final stop with 8 laps to go. He didn't look back as he took the checkered flag and his second win of the season. The downforce package and tire package used at Darlington lead to some old school racing which most of the drivers loved. NASCAR will go back to the regular 2015 package for the Chase playoffs. This week NASCAR heads to Richmond for the final race before the Chase for the Sprint Cup Playoffs. There are 11 drivers who have wins in 2015 and are locked into the Chase. Sitting in 12th - 16th in the standings are McMurray(12th-726 pts), Newman(13th-714 pts), Gordon(14th-700 pts), Menard(15th-692 pts) and Bowyer(16th-682 pts). Aric Almirola sits in 17th place in the standing, 29 points behind Bowyer. It would take some bad luck from Bowyer or Menard and a tremendous finish from Almirola for him to overtake 16th in the Chase Grid. There is a possibility of a driver outside the Chase Grid making it into the playoffs by winning this final race at Richmond. This scenario looks to be a long shot as Richmond is a tough track and none of the drivers outside of 16th have had a lot of success here. Come Saturday night though, none of those drivers care what happened in the past. They are only trying to get the win and into the playoffs. This should make for an exciting race. Here are my picks.

Just scroll to the bottom of the picks. This is a separate service than our traditional monthly membership. Bojangles Southern 500 Darlington Raceway - Darlington, SC Track Type/Length - 1.366 Mile oval Intermediate Track NASCAR is back after a week off from competition and will visit Darlington Raceway for the Bojangles Southern 500. The track has also been named "The Track Too Tough To Tame" and "The Lady in Black". These alternate names are referencing the frequency that the cars rub up against the wall coming out of the turns. This is due to the track being more egg shaped than oval. Kevin Harvick dominated last years race starting from the pole, leading 238 laps, and picking up the checkered flag at the end. There has't been a winner who started outside 7th since Regan Smith won in 2011 after starting in the 23rd position. There will be extra excitement surrounding the race on Sunday night as some of the teams will be using throw back paint schemes this week. You can check them out by clicking HERE. Also, with only two races left until the Chase for the Sprint Playoffs begin, there are a few drivers(McMurray - 12th, Newman - 13th, Menard - 13th, Gordon - 15th, Bowyer - 16th, Almirola - 17th, Kahne - 18th, Biffle - 19th) still fighting for position inside the Chase Grid to get into the post season. This should create a great atmosphere and fun race to watch this week. For Daily Fantasy purposes you will be looking to create a core from drivers who are starting inside the top 10 and have at least two of them starting inside the top 5. Look for drivers who are fast in multiple practices and look closely at 10 lap averages during practice. All of this information from practices will be updated to the cheatsheet and can be re downloaded on Saturday afternoon following Final Practice. I will also update my article with my final thoughts following practice and qualifying. On to my picks.
