Martin Truex Jr. Might Be DFS Chalk Saturday Night
3 years agoMartin Truex Jr. starts all the way down in 20th on Saturday from Martinsville. Yes, his Next-Gen Toyota showed one of the biggest fades in 15,20, and 30-lap intervals. On the other hand, the No. 19 driver can flat out drive on a short-track. He has three wins in his last six starts at Martinsville. In that span, Truex Jr. has led 25.1% of the laps. For perspective, if one does the math, that would be 100 laps in an average 400 lap race at Martinsville. This seems not likely on Saturday night but Truex Jr. could fight his way to the front. After that, it is all about strategy. Truex Jr. may find himself in a position to contend and win.
