For the first time this season, NASCAR is going to a track where teams can decide their own fate -- Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Hang on, we're almost there. Just three races remain in the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season, and this weekend the sport takes to the Lone Star State, running 500 miles at Texas Motor Speedway.

Building an Optimal DFS Lineup: Hollywood Casino 400

The majority of the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season has belonged to Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick. Don't expect anything different this weekend at Kansas Speedway, the first race in the Round of 8.

Building an Optimal DFS Lineup: Bank of America ROVAL 400

If the annual race at Talladega Superspeedway is billed as the wild card race of the playoffs, the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL is a close second.

Building an Optimal DFS Lineup for Sunday's YellaWood 500

Every year, the playoff race at Talladega Superspeedway is one of the most entertaining races of the season. It almost never disappoints.

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup - Cook Out Southern 500

We've made it. After a 10-week hiatus just one month into the NASCAR season, the Cup Series playoffs is set to begin this weekend at Darlington Raceway, the same track that the sport resumed its schedule post-shutdown. With the Southern 500 slated to start in dusk and end at night, there's no reason to expect […]

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup for Saturday's Coke Zero 400

For the first time since NASCAR implemented a playoff format in 2004, the regular-season finale will come on a superspeedway track, that being Daytona International Superspeedway. Expect chaos. Superspeedways are as unpredictable as racing comes, oftentimes using Darwin's Theory of Survival of the Fittest, only in terms of damage. Hell, sometimes that doesn't even work, […]

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup for Sunday's Drydene 311

Well, well, if this article looks the same from Saturday, I promise it's not. Yes, Drydene sponsored both NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series races this weekend, but after Saturday's race at Dover International Speedway, we've got a clearer picture of which teams have strong cars this weekend. Joe Gibbs Racing was lights out on […]

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup for Saturday's Drydene 311

For the third time this season, the NASCAR Cup Series will host a doubleheader weekend, this time coming at Dover International Speedway.

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup for Sunday's Consumers Energy 400

Typically running back-to-back NASCAR Cup Series races in consecutive days at Michigan International Speedway would be dreadful. But after Saturday's (Aug. 8) thriller, not so much anymore.

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup For Saturday's FireKeepers Casino 400

For the second time this season the NASCAR Cup Series will hold a doubleheader, this time at Michigan International Speedway.

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup for Sunday's Foxwoods Resort Casino 301

Hope y'all enjoyed the off weekend, because once business picks back up on Sunday (Aug. 2) at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, it's full throttle to the end of the season.

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup for Sunday's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500

Three years ago, Texas Motor Speedway introduced a new configuration to the racetrack, expanding the width of Turns 1 and 2 while reducing the banking.

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup For Sunday's Quaker Stake 400 at Kentucky

Over the years, Kentucky Speedway has favored some drivers more than others. Last year, the first race at the 1.5-mile track with the current aerodynamic package, was a snoozer until the final restart, when the Busch brothers battled it out on a two-lap dash. That's not surprising for Kentucky. Unfortunately, it's been criticized over the […]

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup for Sunday's Brickyard 400

For the first time in history, NASCAR is heading to the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 4th weekend. Surely, the sport's top stars will rise at such a historic venue.
