2015 Fantasy Recap: Kyle Busch was impressive in 2015. He accounted for 25% of the wins when he was able to be on the track. He struggled to to be consistent in the first few races back, but Sonoma was a turning point for Kyle Busch. Not only Kyle himself, but JGR as whole. I felt like something clicked with Kyle being back in the car. As a whole that entire organization just went off on a impressive run. It was fun to watch. To me, Kyle always been a streaky driver with the potinal to cause a lot of damage. He never really cooled off last season. He had a few bad finishes, but he never messed up. I think that was key in him winning the championship. Especially in the chase. He never had a bad race, least not one he couldn't make up. He ended the chase with 6 straight top 5 finishes. When he won at Homestead, he also scored his 100th top 5 finish with JGR. Pretty cool in my opinion.
Strong Tracks: Indy, ACS, Richmond and Kentucky
Weak Tracks: Michigan and Kansas
Yahoo Grouping Prediction: A-list Grouping Tier
2016 Fantasy Outlook: I have high hopes for Kyle Busch in the 2016 season. He is the defending Nascar champion and I am sure many people will expect elite numbers from him. That never been a problem for Kyle. He always have put up top tier numbers. Since joining JGR in 2008, he have gone to victory a total 30 wins. In those 8 seasons, he have gone to victory lane three or more times in 6 seasons. I think there a good chance he makes that 7 of 9 seasons. As much I think Kyle will perform very well, I also know he can be inconsistent at times. Like any other will be. Like I mentioned earlier, Kyle is a streaky driver. When he is hot, he is hot. We have seen it in the past. He also have cold streaks at times. Those are the ones you have to worry about. That when we will find out how much Kyle have matured. Will he lash out and complain or will he make the best of a bad situation.
