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):

-The Penske Fords are fast, but are they the cars to beat? Before final practice, I thought they were. Thought they took a step back to the other fast cars in the afternoon in practice.

-Passing will be very tough today, so expect to see a lot of strategies being played out. Smartest crew chief , not the fastest car may win.

-Harvick looked off on Saturday, is that worrisome? I think it is.  Typically they are one of the fastest cars overall. This week I don't get that feeling. However I would never count out the 4 team though.

-RFR have found some speed of late. I wonder if they can keep it up? I sure hope so. Good tracks for this organization coming up, such as Texas and Homestead.

Garry Briggs (@Garryy12):

- Last week I pretty much cursed the 5 car in my Raceday thoughts (yeah I know hate me). However I got some good news for everyone: I actually like Kahne this week. Sneaky fantasy play for those looking to gain ground.

-Dillon starts from 25th, but I don't expect him to stay there. He is someone I really like from mid-pack. That 3 team been fast often over the past month or two. He will be fast again today!

-Kyle Busch will finish inside the top 10 today! I repeat Kyle Busch will finish inside the top 10! I think he will turn around his woes at Kansas. You are only bad as your last race. At Kansas? He finished 3rd last season.

-JGR still holds the best hand in Nascar. I think people have forgotten that JGR is still the most balanced team. They show speed each and every week. Not to mention they always qualify well, too. That a recipe for success, folks!

Matt Aleza (@MattAleza):

-I expect a lot of long runs today and a lot of following the leader. So track position will be huge here!

-Kyle Larson is someone who I expect to drive through the field today. That kid love that high line and it was coming in during practice. I think he finishes in the top 10!

-Don't forget about Aric Almirola everyone. He starts from 23rd, but he seems to have a good car for today race.

-I am not really diggin either of the Busch bros today. Sorry but I will take a rain check and save them for a different day.
