There is no “I” in NASCAR
By KFFL Staff | Categories: NASCAR
The last two races in of the Sprint Cup season have served as a reminder that NASCAR is in fact a team sport. Only one driver gets to go to Victory Lane at the end of the day, but it isn't uncommon to see drivers from the same team run well at the same track. It is a trend that fantasy owners can definitely use to their advantage. Click here to read the rest...
Fantasy NASCAR: Gaining speed
By KFFL Staff | Categories: Fantasy NASCAR
Thanks to the new point system NASCAR implemented prior to the start of the season, slow starts are now harder than ever to overcome. Eight races into the 2011 campaign, there are still drivers trying to overcome one or two bad finishes. Being mired deep in the standings will keep many drivers off fantasy rosters, but that is a short-sighted approach. There are several drivers running much better than their points position indicates, and if the competition is shying away from them, it means savvy owners have a golden opportunity to gain some serious ground.

Fantasy NASCAR: A bubble-bursting reality check
By KFFL Staff | Categories: Fantasy NASCAR
The 2011 Sprint Cup season is eight races old, and with the teams enjoying an off week, it gives fantasy owners a perfect opportunity to assess what has gone on so far this year.

There are a few drivers that have run well thus far that have been throwing out red flags. Knowing which drivers to be leery of going forward can give owners a leg up on the competition when the series returns to action at Richmond. Click here to read the rest...

Fantasy NASCAR overvalued and bust drivers
By KFFL Staff | Categories: Fantasy NASCAR,NASCAR
NASCAR is a sport with many ups and downs. The winner one week could barely finish inside the top 20 the next. Over the course of a single race a driver could be leading laps one moment only to end the day on the hook of a tow truck. With 36 points-paying races that span from February through November, it's doubtful the drivers highlighted below will struggle each and every week. However, there is a question mark or two surrounding them due to key team changes, troublesome trends or simply some doubts about duplicating last year's success.
