Michael McDowell May Have Trouble Repeating Spring Performance at Kansas

Michael McDowell finished 10th in the spring race at Kansas Speedway earlier this season, and while it's definitely not impossible for that to happen again in this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400, it's nowhere near a guarantee. The No. 34 Ford hasn't had great speed on intermediate tracks this season, and McDowell's 10th-place finish here at […]

Ross Chastain Has Upside at Kansas

Ross Chastain is a pretty strong fantasy option at Kansas Speedway this weekend. The Trackhouse Racing driver qualified 20th for Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400, giving him plenty of room to earn Place Differential points by moving up once the race starts. Kansas has been one of the strongest tracks on the circuit for Chastain since […]

He also qualified 32nd in the first […]

Perhaps the most improved driver since the first half of the season, Zane Smith qualified 15th for this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway as he looks to keep the good times rolling on Sunday.

Kyle Larson Obliterates The Field In Bristol Night Race

Bristol Motor Speedway is one of the most treacherous tracks on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule, as drivers have to wheel their race cars around the half-mile bullring for 500 laps every time the series stops there.

Heading into the Bass Pro Shops Night Race weekend, many people were looking at Brad Keselowski as a potential winner of the race.

Ty Gibbs a Chalk DFS Pick at Bristol on Saturday Night

It's no secret that Ty Gibbs is good at Bristol Motor Speedway. He finished 35th in his first NASCAR Cup Series race here in 2022 due to steering problems, but the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has been a legitimate threat to win in the two races since then. In 2023, Gibbs started eighth and ended […]

John Hunter Nemechek Has DFS Sleeper Potential at Bristol

John Hunter Nemechek is an interesting driver to keep an eye on in Saturday night's Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway, especially in DFS contests.
