Aric Almirola Sneaks Up To Prime Qualifying Position Saturday

Aric Almirola has a history at tracks like Kansas. However, at Kansas, it has been a bit of a different story. He qualified seventh on Saturday just behind the Busch Brothers.

Keith Mitchell Looking To Find Game In Texas

Keith Mitchell hit a rough patch at the Zurich Open and Wells Fargo where he just could not string enough birdies together. Mitchell missed the cut both times as a result.

Aaron Rai May Surprise At Byron Nelson

Aaron Rai has enjoyed a nice upswing over the past few tournaments. Aside from the second round bottoming out (76) at the Wells Fargo, Rai had finished in the top 30 in three straight appearances.

Kevin Harvick Starts From The Rear At Darlington

Several cars will begin unexpectedly from the rear including Kevin Harvick and his Stewart-Haas Racing car.

That being said, few […]

Chase Briscoe In Better Position At Darlington

Chase Briscoe and his Stewart-Haas Racing car are in a better position than last year where he started in the 20's and worked his way up the field. He had a +11 and +5 place differential and was in the top-ten late in both races before falling back a lap. Starting 13th on Sunday may […]

Aric Almirola Starts 12th On Sunday At Darlington

Aric Almirola has an interesting history of late at Darlington. He has two top-ten results in his last six starts.

Tyler Reddick and his Richard Childress Racing car may not be the steadiest car out there. However, Reddick is more than capable of outperforming the limitations of his No. 8 Chevy.

William Byron Begins Ninth On Sunday At Darlington

Ryan Blaney Tries To Erase Issues At Darlington

Ryan Blaney and the Darlington track have not gotten along. There have been speed drops and mechanical issues. Blaney did manage to qualify seventh for Sunday's race, however. Blaney did not have a jump that some drivers had between his five and ten-lap interval. It was strange and could just be an outlier. However, what […]
