Fantasy Nascar Picks

Welcome to Timerssports

Kansas Recap: Things were looking fantastic until 6 laps to go and then my Yahoo lineup fell apart when JMac went off the pace. Despite that , we were able to knock off an 311 which was good enough for now. Fantasy Live looked great , until Brad K tire went down. Still a respectable 289.

Charlotte Look ahead: Charlotte should prove to be very interesting. 12 Chase spots and only two drivers can secure their spot in round 3 before the Smash 'em up known as Talladega. Will Brad K rebound? Can Johnson regain dominates? Will Nascar most popular driver return to championship form? Charlotte will have those answer and much more.

Overall Rankings -

Yahoo: 758th (99th Percentile)

Fantasy Live: 248th (99th Percentile)

A:

Start: Jimmie Johnson (2)

Bench: Kevin Harvick (1)

Reason: Big reason I always say select your driver smart. Now I backed myself into a corner of starting Johnson. I would be more comfortable with Harvick , but not gonna burn it yet. Mainly because of qualifying.

B:

Start: Brad Keselowski (3) , Denny Hamlin (3)

Bench: Joey Logano (3) , Ryan Newman (1)

Reason: BK or Logano is a tough one. BK have more on the line in my opinion. So I will use one of BK(s). Hamlin or Newman was next. Hamlin get the call. Great starting position and a better car.

C:

Start: Austin Dillon (3)

Bench: Kyle Larson (2)

Reason: I believe Larson will finish better , but it won't be much. Dillon value is far less great then Larson. So I will use a Dillon and hope Larson don't finishes significantly better.

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

Dark Horse - Kyle Busch

Race Winner - Brad Keselowski
