Chase Elliott an Easy DFS Pick at Chicago Street Course

Chase Elliott will be a chalk DFS pick for this weekend's Grant Park 165 at the Chicago Street Course.

Josh Berry Is Awful At Road Courses

There are some race tracks where Josh Berry can be considered a legitimate sleeper. Road course tracks are not one of those, though.

After posting the 38th-fastest […]
