Tyler Reddick On The Outside Looking In After Kansas Dud

Just one race in to the Round of 12, and the regular season points champion, Tyler Reddick, is already on the outside looking in for the Round of 8. Kansas Speedway has been a very strong track for Reddick in the past, but he struggled in both races there this season, particularly this past weekend, […]

Martin Truex Jr: "Just Ran Out of Time" At Kansas

The bad finish streak by Martin Truex Jr. is finally over. After eight straight races with results of 20th or worse, Truex came home with a third-place finish in Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. He also led five laps and looked to be in contention for the win, as the No. 19 Toyota […]

Ty Gibbs Scores Top-Five Finish At Kansas

Ty Gibbs had one of the strongest cars in Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 and ended up with a solid fifth-place finish when it was all said and done. "We had a really fast Monster Energy Camry. I feel like we were pretty solid and in the top five most of the day. Just needed a […]

NASCAR Playoffs: Round Two - All 12 Driver Outlooks and Preview

And then there were 12... with the conclusion of the night race at Bristol this past weekend, NASCAR's playoffs field got smaller, as four drivers--Ty Gibbs, Brad Keselowski, Martin Truex, Jr, and Harrison Burton--were all eliminated from Championship contention. Now we start a whole new round, and it kicks off this weekend at Kansas Speedway--the […]

Kyle Larson the Favorite to Win Kansas Despite Qualifying 11th

Even though he failed to make the final round of qualifying on Saturday, Kyle Larson is still the favorite to win this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400. And when you look at his track record at Kansas Speedway, can you really blame the bookmakers for that? Larson is the most recent winner at Kansas and has […]

Ty Gibbs Could Contend at Kansas

Keep an eye on Ty Gibbs in this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has shown top-five potential in almost all intermediate track races this season, and although sometimes the finishes haven't came along with that speed, it's never very smart to bet against a fast car. This weekend […]

Can Martin Truex Jr Finally Get a Good Finish This Weekend?

This is getting a little ridiculous. With his 24th-place finish at Bristol last weekend, Martin Truex Jr now has eight straight finishes of 20th or worse in Cup Series action. He hasn't had a top five finish since all the way back in May which was at, ironically, Kansas Speedway--the same track the Cup Series […]

Joey Logano Has Top 10 Potential at Kansas

Look for Joey Logano to compete for a top-10 finish at Kansas Speedway this weekend. The Team Penske driver ended up finishing 34th here back in the spring, but that was due to flat tires after a spin as opposed to actually being that slow in the race. Looking at the three other races on […]

Noah Gragson Could Have a Great Day at Kansas

Don't sleep on Noah Gragson in this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver finished ninth here in the first race this season and also ended up with a sixth-place finish at Las Vegas earlier this year, which is the sister track to Kansas. As far as practice speeds go, Gragson's […]

Alex Bowman is Very Good at Kansas

Don't be surprised if Alex Bowman has a great race at Kansas Speedway this weekend. The Hendrick Motorsports driver has definitely taken a liking to this track, and in the Next Gen era, he has never finished outside of the top 10 in four races at the venue. Even before the Next Gen car was […]

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 […]

Justin Haley Qualifies 23rd in First Race Back at Spire Motorsports

Justin Haley is back behind the wheel of a Spire Motorsports race car once again this weekend, as he will pilot the No. 7 Chevrolet for the rest of 2024 (and beyond) in relief of Corey Lajoie, the two of which swapped rides. Haley had mid-pack speed during practice at Kansas on Saturday, ranking 20th-fastest […]

Ryan Preece With Another Clunker of a Qualifying Effort at Kansas

Starting near the rear of the field is becoming pretty common for Ryan Preece this season, especially at intermediate tracks. Preece was the second-slowest car in qualifying for this weekend's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway and will roll off the starting grid from 37th on Sunday afternoon. He also qualified 32nd in the first […]

Zane Smith Qualifies 15th at Kansas

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. And while that top-half qualifying effort is going to spook most DFS players away when building lineups this weekend, […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr a Sneaky DFS Tournament Pick at Kansas

If you're looking for a high-risk, potentially high-reward driver for Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway, consider Ricky Stenhouse Jr, who is reasonably priced at $6,700 on DraftKings.

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. That's why Kyle Larson's completely domination in Saturday evening's Bass Pro Shop Night Race was quite surprising, even […]

Brad Keselowski Eliminated From Playoffs After Terrible Performance At Bristol

Heading into the Bass Pro Shops Night Race weekend, many people were looking at Brad Keselowski as a potential winner of the race. Once the green flag flew, though, it was quickly figured out that the No. 6 Ford had nowhere near the speed to compete. In fact, Keselowski had one of his worst performances […]

Late Charge Not Enough For Ty Gibbs At Bristol

A speeding penalty seemingly doomed Ty Gibbs early on in the Bass Pro Shops Night Race on Saturday evening, but the Joe Gibbs Racing driver still had a chance in the final stage at Bristol.

Tyler Reddick Still Hasn’t Figured Out Bristol, But He Advances In Playoffs

Surprisingly enough, Bristol Motor Speedway has been a weak spot for Tyler Reddick, and the 23XI Racing driver struggled once again in Saturday evening's Bass Pro Shops Night Race. Using a bold strategy call, the No. 45 team was able to pick up some valuable points in the second Stage, but Reddick ultimately finished in […]

Christopher Bell Notches Another Top-Five Finish At Bristol

Kyle Larson Has Dominating Upside at Bristol on Sunday Night

Look for Kyle Larson to be a contender all night at Bristol Motor Speedway on Saturday evening. The Hendrick Motorsports driver has just one career victory at this race track (back in 2021), but he's constantly one of the best at this venue; over the last 10 races at Bristol, Larson has finished sixth or […]

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 […]
