Denny Hamlin Picking Up Where He Left Off At Darlington

Back in April of this year, it was Denny Hamlin standing in victory lane here at Darlington Raceway. And when the Cook Out Southern 500 goes green on Sunday night, Hamlin will pick up right where he left off, as the No. 11 Toyota was the fastest car in qualifying on Saturday with a time […]

Ryan Blaney a Strong DFS Play at Darlington This Weekend

Make sure you have plenty of Ryan Blaney in your DFS lineups for the Southern 500 at Darlington this weekend. The No. 12 Ford has been one of the fastest cars on the long run all season long, and that type of speed is exactly what a driver needs to be successful at a track […]

Tyler Reddick Shouldn't Be Overlooked at Darlington This Weekend

Be sure not to overlook Tyler Reddick at Darlington Raceway this weekend. In the seven races in the Next Gen era, Reddick has the second-best average driver rating (107.8) and the most top-five finishes (four) among active Cup Series drivers. He walked away with a fourth-place result in the first race here this season (after […]

Alex Bowman An Easy Place-Differential Play in DFS This Weekend

Alex Bowman is going to be one of the most popular picks on the DFS slate this weekend at Darlington Raceway. That is because Bowman qualified back in 29th-place for Sunday evening's Cook Out Southern 500, and with his very affordable DraftKings salary of $7,800, that makes Bowman a prime Place Differential pick on this […]

Ty Gibbs Could Be Strong at Darlington This Weekend

Don't overlook Ty Gibbs this weekend at Darlington Raceway. The young Joe Gibbs Racing driver has taken a knack to "The Lady in Black," as Gibbs has finished seventh or better in five of the last six Stages at this track. As far as race results go, Ty ended up ninth here in the spring […]

Joey Logano Might Focus More on Playoff Races

Joey Logano has almost been the polar opposite of Chris Buescher as he no longer seems to care about where he finishes in a race as long as he wins at the right moments and accumulates a lot of stage points. While purists prefer Buescher's consistent approach, there's no denying that Logano's approach is better-suited […]

Missing Playoffs Allows Chris Buescher to Potentially Go All Out at Darlington

Although some people see Chris Buescher as a major playoff snub, he was far less deserving this year than in 2024 when he was a genuine snub because this year, he hardly ever had anything resembling winning speed. He is typically too risk-averse to avoid mistakes, which gives him a higher floor than most other […]

Shane van Gisbergen Qualifies Too Well for DFS Consideration

Since there is no road course in this round of the NASCAR playoffs, Shane van Gisbergen's playoff run will likely end right here. His 20th-place qualifying run made him one of the only three playoff drivers who failed to qualify in the top 14, so he'll likely lose points to all of them unless another […]

Austin Dillon Earns Best Qualifying Result at Darlington

Despite never leading a lap at Darlington, Austin Dillon wasn't actually bad here in his earlier years as he posted five top-10 finishes in his first 12 starts, including a second-place finish in the 2020 Southern 500. But almost all of that came with the Gen 6 car, while he has been significantly slower everywhere […]
