2017 Fantasy Nascar Update (Texas)

Welcome to TimersSports Fantasy Nascar Update - 1. Martin Truex Jr - Truex Jr haven't looked dominated or starting on the front row, however he is the man on the 1.5 mile tracks. Sure, he is starting from 7th but I don't think it will matter. He will be in the mix all race long and that usually leads to very good things for Truex Jr. Especially on the 1.5 mile tracks, where he has done some serious damage. In fact, he has led the most laps on this type of track this season and has the most wins on this type of track. He has won the past 4 races on the 1.5 mile intermediate tracks and 6 of 9 on the season overall. Don't doubt the numbers and trust in Martin's consistency! 2. Kyle Busch - Rowdy has been consistency one of the fastest drivers on the track throughout the season and he is locked into the next round. What should we expect from Rowdy? I think we should expect a lot of things and a lot of good things, too. He is a stud at Texas and usually can be counted to lea...

2017 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Texas)

Welcome to TimersSports Fantasy Nascar Picks - Yahoo - A: Start - Kyle Busch Bench - Martin Truex Jr Reasons - I don't really have a prefer driver here, but I am going with Kyle Busch because I have more starts with him. That is really the only reason I am going with him over Truex Jr. Otherwise, I think they are both pretty close. B: Start - Kyle Larson, Ryan Blaney Bench - Chase Elliott, Clint Bowyer Reasons -I wanted to go with Larson and Elliott, but things worked out okay overall though. I can save my Elliott start from Homestead now. And use Blaney here instead. I think Elliott has a better car, but I won't risk it with him starting so deep in the field. Kurt Busch is the best start-save option in the field for Sunday's race. I also like Ricky Stenhouse Jr as a deep sleeper, too. I also think Jamie Mac will better than he has shown so far this weekend. C: Start - Erik Jones Bench - Ty Dillon Reasons - Heading into the playoffs, I thought that Texas was the place for E...

2017 Fantasy Nascar RaceDay Thoughts (Martinsville)

Welcome to TimersSports RaceDay Thoughts - Jeff Nathans (@JeffNathans18): - I hate the same day-qualifying and race format for cup. I am sorry, but I just don't like it. Obviously I am biased for personal reasons -I really like the Gibbs cars again today - AJ Dinger is a hidden gem, that nobody have really talked about -Chase Elliott will not back up his recent success here Matt Aleza (@MattAleza): - My top 3 in my final rankings were Kyle Busch, Truex Jr and Hamlin. I think one of those three will eventually win. 2 of those will lead 50+ laps apiece. Yeah, I am calling my shot - This is a bad track for Kyle Larson. He shown improvement lately at this place, but I think he will be overrated - Passing is always tough here, track position will be key -Blaney is in for another solid afternoon

2017 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Martinsville)

Welcome to TimersSports Fantasy Nascar Picks - Yahoo - A: Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch Reasons - The Gibbs cars (and Truex Jr) have primary dominated majority of the chase, so why go against it? I am down to one Truex Jr start, so I am going with the two drivers that I think can challenge for the win. And they are teammates Hamlin and Busch. They are both former winners at this place and both can definitely win. B: Jamie Mac, Ryan Newman, Chase Elliott and Clint Bowyer Reasons - This is a place where you can find some start saves at. So I don't want to be using my limited starts with Elliott or Larson here. Jamie Mac is a stud here and get around this place good as anyone else. Newman is usually good for a quality finish at these places. Bowyer is good on these shorter tracks, too. Here and Phoenix are the two places I would likely use him on. Elliott is solely on there for qualifying points. C: Ty Dillon and Michael McDowell Reasons - I am out of starts with Suarez and down to one ...
