Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts (Kansas)

Welcome to TimersSports

Happy Raceday. Setting your fantasy team can be difficult , especially with everything being factored in. Below our group of experts give their thoughts on today race (Including their final
picks).

Kate Roswell (@CrazyKateNascar):

-Expect passing to be difficult! Which mrans strategy will get crazy. Especially after the 2nd or 3rd green flag run.

-Can Danica Patrick make it to the front? She was a popular sleeper this week. Her 7th place run last fall may have oversold her. Least her practice results indicated that.

-Can Erik Jones back up his impressive qualifying effort? Maybe? Maybe not? We will see.

-I think Edwards grabs his 2nd Top 10 of the 2015 season at Kansas!

Garry Briggs (@Garryy12):

-Aric Almirola is a guy to watch out for! He was really pleased about his car in race trim and think the 43 car run up front.

-Larson will have his best run of the 2015 season. I am higher than most on him.

-How will David Ragan fair tonight? That's something I am interested in finding out.

-How about Greg Biffle? Qualifying inside the top 10! Is he fool gold or hidden treasure? I hope he hidden treasure for the record.

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

- I expect to be extremely boring with very few cautions or a repeat of Bristol (from few races ago).

-Since the reconfiguration , no driver have won from outside the top 15 starting positions (actually 13th - Jeff Gordon.) Including 3 of the past 4 winners from the top 4.

-Since the reconfiguration , the pole have been won from twice. Logano starts on the pole. He won from 4th last season.

-The past 5 NSCS winners have finished outside the top 10 the race before (Thanks for the fantastic stat , Garry). I found that really interesting and strange!
