Ahhhh!!!! Help me with my Fantasy picks....?

May be...

  • It's getting down to the wire here and I need help. I am 130 point out of 1st place and the 1st place guy has pretty much used all the top drivers. The 3rd place guy is also pretty much out of the top rank drivers as well.

    So I need some advice on the last 4 races and who to play when.

    Here is my big boys left to play and how many times I have left to play them. The ones I haven't named are because I still have them wide open so any advise it greatly appreciated.

    Jimmie (2)
    Carl (3)
    Kyle Busch (2)
    Junior (1)
    Biffle (1)
    Martin (2)
    Vickers (2)

    Who would you suggest I play at which of the last 4 races? I know a huge question but who would you use?

    The tracks left are:
    Atlanta
    Texas
    Phoenix
    Homestead

    Please don't just tell me who you like but give me some facts on who and why to play them at these last tracks. I have been doing a fine job so far but now I am stuck. Help.

    Thank you so much for your time.

  • Atlanta- Jimmie or Kyle
    Reason: because they both are good their, Kyle won earlier this year, and Jimmie won last year

    Texas- Jimmie or Carl
    Reason: Same as above, you can also use Matt Kenseth as he as a good avg finish. Same with Burton hes a big time darkhorse their.

    Phoenix- Jimmie or Martin
    Reason: Jimmie won past 2 races their, and Martin has a awsome avg finish of 9.2. And has led the most total laps there (676)

    Homestead- Biffle
    Reason: Hes diffinatly one of the best at this track, Roush Racing owns Homestead. http://www.racing-reference.info/tracks?...
  • Jimmie Johnson:
    -Atlanta(best average finish of all drivers since 2003(7.4) and has won there 3 times with 2 of those 3 being in the Fall race)
    -Phoenix(also best avg. finish of all drivers since 2003(5.0),has won Phoenix twice:the Chase race last year and the Phoenix race earlier this year)

    Carl Edwards:
    -Atlanta(he runs well there and won both races in 2005)
    -Texas(also runs well there and won the Texas Chase race in 2005)
    -Homestead(best avg. finish among all drivers since 2003-7.8)

    Kyle Busch:
    Atlanta(won there earlier this year/participated in a tire test there last month)
    Texas(runs decent there and is similar to Atlanta)

    Dale,Jr.:
    Atlanta or Texas(avg. finishes of 10.8 and 11.4,respectively and has 1 win at each track)

    Greg Biffle:
    Definitely Homestead-Miami(Greg won Homestead 3 years in a row(2004-2006) with Roush-Fenway teammate Kenseth winning last year's)

    Mark Martin:
    Texas/Phoenix(If he is racing the rest of the season and you can choose from any of the four,I would pick those two because those are his two best tracks remaining.

    Vickers:
    Phoenix(not much to choose from here,but this is the only track he has a decent avg. finish at-16.5)

    Some dark horses:
    Atlanta(Bobby Labonte,Juan-Pablo Montoya)
    Texas(Kurt Busch,Jamie McMurray,Casey Mears)
    Phoenix(Kurt Busch,Martin Truex,Jr.,Bobby Labonte)
    Homestead(David Ragan,Jamie McMurray,Dave Blaney)

    You didn't list Tony Stewart,but if you can use him,he is good at all of the remaining tracks.Here are his best in order:
    1.Atlanta(8.1,2nd best avg of all drivers)
    2.Phoenix(11.0,4th best of all)
    3.Texas(14.0-12th of all)
    4.Homestead(14.2-9th of all)
  • were u play at??? Jr. at atlanta carl at p.i.r
  • I'd spend both of those #99 picks @ Atlanta &Texas
    Junior and Hamlin @ Phoenix
    Biffle @Homestead
    Carl's won Texas
    Biffle shows out on flat tracks
  • Atlanta: Edwards is the favorite there. Johnson will run good and Kyle Busch should do good. He runs well everywhere as long as there's no mechanical failure. Stewart, Ragan, Jr, Burton. Biffle is hot and cold. Not sure what he's gonna do each week

    Texas: Edwards, Johnson, Burton, Jr, Kenseth

    Phoenix: Jr, Jr, Jr....lol. Johnson, Gordon, Bowyer

    Homestead: Biffle, Kenseth, Martin. Johnson does not run here well at all. Hope this helps
  • Atlanta-Johnson and Biffle. Both have run well in the past and are known to run extremely well on the 1.5 mile tracks

    Texas-Junior and Edwards. Both have won there in the past and ran well early this year too

    Phoenix-Johnson and Martin. Johnson has won the last two races there and Martin has done really well on the flat tracks this year including a 5th place run in the spring

    Homestead-Biffle and Edwards. Roush Racing has dominated this track and in particular Biffle who won 3 straight from 04-06.
  • I am going to stick to the one race coming up and say that I am going to use Carl Edwards. I only have one use of JJ and I am going to hold on to him for qualifying points for now.

    My answer: Karma Carl for Atlanta

    Check back with me next week for another..................
  • The name Vickers is very intriguing. I think he would make a great pick. Good luck my friend. Change is coming.911 prank calls
