Kevin Harvick Begins Sunday 23rd At Kansas

Kevin Harvick and his Stewart-Haas Racing car has been remarkable at Kansas. He has the best driver rating of 114.6 and has not finished lower than 13th. There is automatic place differential. The No. 4 Ford has finished in the top-ten in five of the past six races on the 1.52-mile track. Furthermore, Harvick has […]


Denny Hamlin A Bit Off In Qualifying At Kansas

Denny Hamlin had a bit of an off effort at Kansas on Saturday. Was he saving something? No one is truthfully sure. He will start Sunday in the 18th position. Hamlin has had a true mixed bag of results on the Kansas track. He has won twice and missed out on a win three more […]


Chase Elliott Slipped A Bit in Qualifying Saturday

Chase Elliott will start 14th in Kansas on Sunday. That is worst among all four Hendrick Motorsport Racing drivers. That was a mild surprise given his results on the Kansas track historically. Elliott has done everything but won in his last six starts. That includes four top-fives, five top-tens, and at least two or three […]


William Byron High Among The Hendrick Wave At Kansas

William Byron starts the AdventHealth 400 on Sunday from the 13th position on Sunday. His average finish the last three years is not the worst among the four Hendrick Racing cars. That's correct. Furthermore, he is consistent with five top-ten results in his last six starts. This translates to an average finish of 9.7. The […]


Chase Briscoe Starts 12th On Sunday At Kansas

Chase Briscoe raced his Ford to outside Row 6 for Sunday's race at Kansas. Briscoe has had some interesting adventures on the 1.52-mile track. His No. 14 car does not have the greatest track record at the top level but did win last year in the Xfinity Series. That is something to at least keep […]


Ross Chastain One To Watch On Sunday At Kansas

Ross Chastain only qualified 11th on Saturday but had one of the quicker laps in practice and just missed out on the final round of qualifying. The result is the No. 1 Chevy being a racer to watch on Sunday. Consider that Chastain has seven top-five finishes already and two wins. Overall, he is fifth […]


Ryan Blaney Fights Into Top Ten Qualifying Spot Saturday

Ryan Blaney and Kansas have kind of been like oil and water. They have not mixed well. On the other hand, the Ford driver scratched and clawed his way to a tenth place result on Saturday. He will start on the outside of Row 5 on Sunday. The question is now can he avoid the […]


Martin Truex Jr. Has Solid Qualifying Effort At Kansas

Martin Truex Jr. was not spectacular on Saturday, but he did not have to be. He wound up ninth overall among all drivers finishing 0.537 seconds behind Christopher Bell. That was good enough as they say. Truex Jr. has been remarkably consistent at Kansas with five top-ten results in his last six appearances. There has […]


Alex Bowman May Contend At Kansas On Sunday

Alex Bowman winds up qualifying in the top ten once more at Kansas for Sunday's race. His eighth place effort came in at just over 177.5 mph and 0.34 seconds behind Christopher Bell. The No. 48 Chevy wound up just ahead of Martin Truex Jr. on just enough sectors which was a mild surprise. Bowman […]


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. His qualifying lap was almost 178 mph which probably was a good two more mph's than expected. The inevitable question is does his car […]


Kyle Busch Qualifies Next To Older Brother Saturday

Kyle Busch and his No. 18 Toyota qualified sixth on Saturday right next to his brother, Kurt Busch. That's right. The Busch brothers occupy row three. Kyle wound up 0.27 seconds behind Christopher Bell, who is on the pole for the Sunday race at Kansas. The difference is the younger Busch has won here recently […]


Kurt Busch Finds The Speed At Kansas Once More

Kurt Busch has some consistency at Kansas Speedway. Even with less than optimal race cars, the No .45 Toyota car can manufacture speed and acceleration in sectors quite well. He qualified fifth on Saturday a little more than 0.2 of a second behind pole-sitter Christopher Bell. The 23XI Racing driver has two top-five results and […]


Kyle Larson Is A Favorite On Sunday At Kansas

Kyle Larson and his No. 5 Chevy feel like a favorite every week when it comes to the odds. Yet, for the most part, that is true. This week, Larson qualified in the third spot as the fastest Hendrick Motorsports Racing car. Larson only has four races in the last three seasons at Kansas but […]


Tyler Reddick With Another Fast Qualifying Run At Kansas

Tyler Reddick can get around a track very fast. On Saturday, the driver guided his Chevy to the second best qualifying time. The No. 8 car was a mere 0.131 seconds off the pole and just edged out Kyle Larson for a position on the front row. Reddick does have a couple of top-ten finishes […]


Christopher Bell Blows Doors Off In Qualifying Run Saturday

The expected result on Saturday was to see a Joe Gibbs Racing driver win the pole. The unexpected was seeing it be Christopher Bell. That is just what happened as Bell won every quarter in every sector en route to the pole for Sunday's AdventHealth 400. The Kansas Speedway may not have been too kind […]


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. Previously, the American golfer had been playing well. He drives the ball well off the tee and accurately. Mitchell even gains almost two tenths […]


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. That included a tie for fourth at the Zurich Classic. Rai was leading the New Orleans tournament at one point […]


Francesco Molinari Trying To Bounce Back At Byron Nelson

Francesco Molinari has endured a tough time on the PGA Tour of late missing cuts in three straight tournaments. The last time the Italian golfer got his putter going was at The American Express in January. He shot -19 then and that was his last top-ten result (tied for sixth). Since then, it has been […]


Matthew Wolff True Wildcard At Byron Nelson

Matthew Wolff has struggled mightily in 2022. The American golfer has missed four cuts and has three finishes outside the top 60. Wolff managed a tied for 25th last week at the Wells Fargo. Wolff can hit more than 315 yards with ease. The problem is accuracy. The American lands the ball on the fairway […]


Ryan Palmer Putting Issues Possible Again At Byron Nelson

Ryan Palmer improved his putting a little at the Zurich Open a few weeks back and enjoying a top-20 result. Even then, his final-round 71 likely knocked him out of a spot in the top ten. His overall putting ranks 204th losing nearly 0.7 of a stroke. Also, his driving accuracy ranks 165th (54.75%). At […]


PrizePicks NASCAR DFS Prop Picks for Goodyear 400

Hello everyone once again!  We trek on down to Darlington, South Carolina for the Goodyear 400 this week and the 12th 2022 edition of NASCAR DFS on PrizePicks. Our friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you […]


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. The No. 4 Ford was part of what felt like a tire blowing brigade that understandably has quite a few drivers concerned. The word wary has been used by Chase Elliott and even Kevin Harvick. That being said, few […]


Chase Elliott Tire Blowout Leads To Start From Rear

Unlike a couple others with tire issues, Chase Elliott wrecked his car pretty good on Saturday. As a result, he begins the Goodyear 400 from the back of the pack. The No. 9 Chevy figures to move up quickly even in his backup car. Elliott has not had much success at Darlington as a whole. […]


Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Place Differential Possibility At Darlington

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. contending is off the table. However, the fact that he starts off 26th or outside the top-25 again bodes well. The JTG Daugherty Racing driver has place differentials of +14, +10, +8, and +12 over his last four appearances. His No. 47 Chevy has even been in the top-ten late in a […]


Denny Hamlin Starts From The Rear Sunday

Denny Hamlin turned in the 22nd fastest lap on Sunday but had issues with his No. 11 car as the power seemed to just go out. Repairs were needed to be made and the Joe Gibbs Racing car will start from the rear. Hamlin has quite a history lately at Darlington with two wins in […]


Brad Keselowski Question Mark At Darlington

Brad Keselowski and his RFK Racing car could figure into Darlington prominently on Sunday. Though he starts at 23rd, the No. 6 has two top-five results and three top-tens in his last six starts with top-five late-race speed intervals. While his move from Team Penske has not been kind, Darlington has been. He won in […]


Alex Bowman Starts 15th At Darlington

Alex Bowman is a solid driver at Darlington in his own right. Often referred to as the fourth Hendrick driver, Bowman qualified 15th for the Sunday race. Furthermore, he has a top-five and two top-tens in his last six races on the 1.366-mile course. Bowman's No. 48 Chevy has even led 2.2% of the laps […]


Austin Dillon Right About Where Expected At Darlington

Austin Dillon and his No. 3 Chevy not surprisingly has a way of thriving at Darlington. There was another No. 3 who loved the "track too tough to tame" (Dale Earnhardt Sr.). Dillon starts 14th on Sunday and has a 50-50 chance of finishing in the top-ten. The Richard Childress Racing driver even has a […]


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. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver figured to be the second best SHR driver in qualifying on Saturday. However, when Kevin Harvick blew a tire, things changed. The No. 10 car figures to be up closer to […]
