Fantasy Nascar Picks (TX)

Welcome to TimersSports

Martinsville Recap: Well that's could have gone better in both Yahoo (273) and Fantasy Live (268). The primary goal of the weekend was to survive and limit damage to championship hope. Those middle of the road score didn't help , but didn't hurt much either. Let just chalk it as a tie and move on to Texas.

Texas look ahead: Texas is a fast Intermediate 1.5 mile racetrack. This track have a lot character in it. You need a fast car to be a contender here. I was here earlier this year and speeds are just ridiculous. Especially for how worn out this track is. The guys who have perfored well in the chase are the ones to select.

Overall Rankings -

Yahoo: 635th Overall (99 Percentile)

Fantasy Live: 386th Overall (99th Percentile)

Yahoo:

A-

Start: Jeff Gordon (2)

Bench: Kevin Harvick (1)

Reason: Tough decision! Wasn't impressed by Gordon. But don't want to use my final Harvick either. Ultimately hoping I don't lose much with Gordon over Harvick.

B:

Start Brad Keselowski (2) , Joey Logano (3)

Bench: Denny Hamlin (1) , Jamie Mac (4)

Reason: The Penske both looked pretty good overall. Hamlin & JMac..not so much. I had no plan on using them anyhow.

C:

Start: Kyle Larson (2)

Bench: Austin Dillon  (1)

Reason: Larson > Dillon! Quite frankly it wasn't even close. Larson wasn't much better then Dillon on Saturday. No reason that should change Sunday.

Fantasy Live - Harvick , Keselowski, Logano , Mears and Annett

Dark Horse - Kyle Busch

Race Winner - Kevin Harvick
