Building an Optimal DFS Lineup: Hollywood Casino 400
The majority of the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season has belonged to Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick. Don't expect anything different this weekend at Kansas Speedway, the first race in the Round of 8.

Building an Optimal DFS Lineup: Bank of America ROVAL 400
If the annual race at Talladega Superspeedway is billed as the wild card race of the playoffs, the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL is a close second.

Building an Optimal DFS Lineup for Sunday's YellaWood 500
Every year, the playoff race at Talladega Superspeedway is one of the most entertaining races of the season. It almost never disappoints.

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup - Cook Out Southern 500
We've made it. After a 10-week hiatus just one month into the NASCAR season, the Cup Series playoffs is set to begin this weekend at Darlington Raceway, the same track that the sport resumed its schedule post-shutdown.

Building an Optimal NASCAR DFS Lineup for Saturday's Coke Zero 400
For the first time since NASCAR implemented a playoff format in 2004, the regular-season finale will come on a superspeedway track, that being Daytona International Superspeedway. Expect chaos. Superspeedways are as unpredictable as racing comes, oftentimes using Darwin's Theory of Survival of the Fittest, only in terms of damage. Hell, sometimes that doesn't even work,... Read More

NASCAR DFS: Building an Optimal Lineup For Sunday's Quaker Stake 400 at Kentucky
Over the years, Kentucky Speedway has favored some drivers more than others. Last year, the first race at the 1.5-mile track with the current aerodynamic package, was a snoozer until the final restart, when the Busch brothers battled it out on a two-lap dash. That's not surprising for Kentucky. Unfortunately, it's been criticized over the... Read More
