Thus, we have a small data set as we dealt with at Auto Club Speedway.

Sunday will see 325 laps run around Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Folds of Honor 500. Should things remain static, we can count on seeing a second and third driver lead 10% of the race as well.

The only mitigating factor was our second issue: tire wear. Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500.

Tire fall-off is so sharp and quick at Atlanta that racing truly becomes a matter of how well a driver can maintain his equipment. So can we look at anything from last season’s race? Matt DiBenedetto (DK $7,200, FD $8,600) only has a best Atlanta finish of 26th, but last week's race at Bristol was only the first time this year he failed to finish in the top 20.

Dan Malin Published Sun Jun 07, 2020 10:20 am (EDT) Officials at Atlanta have been wanting to repave the surface for about four years. As long as this track fails to get repaved, tire wear will always be an underlying issue. A result of really one thing: Atlanta’s abrasive surface. Atlanta is a 1.5 mile high tire wear track that compares to tracks like Charlotte, Texas and Darlington(tire wear). 2019 - Brad Keselowski2018 - Kevin Harvick2017 - Brad Keselowski2016 - Jimmie Johnson2015 - Jimmie Johnson2014 - Kasey Kahne2013 - Kyle Busch2012 - Denny Hamlin2011 - Jeff Gordon2010 fall - Tony Stewart. Well, we can actually look two things, I believe, two things that remain static at Atlanta regardless of package. McClure's optimal Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 DFS strategy also involves rostering Clint Bowyer ($8,100 on DraftKings, $8,200 on FanDuel), who is off to a solid start this season, finishing sixth at the Daytona 500 and fifth last week at Phoenix. He was a constant fixture inside the top 12 in almost every race. Racing began at Atlanta in 1960, a time when 1.5-mile tracks were the exception and not the rule. Truth be told, if not for that caution, Almirola probably would have led the entire first segment, if not more. Now, we’re seeing Atlanta run all the way into June. C.J. He looks destined to win this season with the pace he has had so far and with five track wins here, this could be the week it happens. Thus, be sure to check back Saturday morning for my NASCAR DFS picks article. This article is part of our DFS NASCAR series. In fact, two of our final leaders had to pit under the green flag (Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney) because they wore out their tires racing to the lead. This 7k range on DK, like every week is full of good options.

Jimmie Johnson (DK $10,200, FD $10,000) may be close to being a reliable fantasy option again. Atlanta's old and rough track surface will eat tires quickly and teams won't be able to stay out on old tires and hold off those behind with more grip quite as easily as they were able to in Charlotte. Yet, it is not the package we saw at intermediate tracks last season. Also don’t forget we have PGA starting up this week and @sscherman will have all your PGA needs covered from cores to props as well!

Another veteran worth considering this week is Matt Kenseth (DK $8,100, FD $7,000).
