DFS NASCAR

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for the Xfinity series for the 2021 season! If you’ve been with us before then, you know the drill, but welcome if you are new to WinDaily Sports or my NASCAR content! I break down the field each week and give you my favorite plays for each race in three different price categories.

Make sure to check out my NASCAR DFS Tutorial to make sure you are ready and understand how I break down the races and build lineups (https://windailysports.com/nascar-dfs-pit-stop-2021-introduction-to-nascar-dfs/). You will notice that all pricing is for DraftKings in these articles. Since they are the only site with contests for all three series (Trucks, Xfinity, Cup) and the site I mainly play on. All plays in the Cup Series article will translate to FanDuel if that is where you play.

Can we run this race to the end dry?

Earlier this season at Talladega the Xfinity Series race was shortened by rain and saw Jeb Burton ($10,600 – P14) earn his first win in one of NASCAR top touring series. Luckily the weather looks clear for this race and we should get the full 113 laps unless the sun sets early (insert face palm emoji). Much like with the Truck Series race earlier in the day and the Cup Series on Sunday we will be focusing on loading up on drivers starting towards the rear, or as the hashtag says, #StacktheBack!

Unlike the Truck Series, we don’t have a projected +50% owned driver, which is nice. There is a more balanced field in this race and more paths to an optimal build. Like I do every week, I ran the optimizer with multiple settings to see what builds might be popular and many builds leave between $2K and $5K on the table which is what I expected. Pricing for this race isn’t as top-heavy as with the trucks. We have a much better selection of drivers to use in the $7K range. Also, the value section is better for this race with better options so we don’t have to go too deep in a player pool down there. I will be leaving some salary on the table for my builds, probably around $1-2.5K but I will probably have a max salary build as well.

NASCAR DFS: Top Tier

Kaulig Racing

Jeb Burton ($10,600 – P14)

AJ Allmendinger ($10,400 – P5)

Justin Haley ($10,200 – P8)

Kaulig has dominated Superspeedway racing in recent years in the Xfinity Series, especially Talladega. This team has won three straight Talladega races, Chevrolets have also won 6 straight and 7 of 8 races. It is hard to bet against these guys when it seems like Kaulig has mastered the Superspeedway program. My preferred pick is Burton, but Haley swept both races here in 2020 so he would be the next best play. Allmendinger will have the lowest ownership because he starts in the top 5 and is the riskiest play.

John Hunter Nemechek ($10,000)

Starting Position: 11th

Nemechek is in the #54 Joe Gibbs Toyota this weekend and should be a threat to win this race. After running the Truck Series earlier in the day, JHN will hop into the JGR car and look to potentially sweep these races. Nemechek hasn’t raced here in an Xfinity car since 2019, but in his two Talladega races, he has finishes of 6th and 7th. If he can keep this car clean he should be a threat to go to victory lane.

Other Options: Noah Grason ($9,800 – P4), Daniel Hemric ($9,400 – P6)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

JJ Yeley ($8,100)

Starting Position: 38th

Yeley is underpriced for his upside and skill at this track. With him being underpriced, I would expect the ownership to be massive, but with people potentially paying up for the Kaulig drivers they may not be able to afford Yeley. In his last five races at Talladega, Yeley has finished between 4th and 11th four times with 22nd being his lowest finish (which would make value on Saturday). I love Yeley on Saturday and will be overweight on him for sure.

Garrett Smithley ($7,300)

Starting Position: 35th

Smithley is something of a Talladega Xfinity Series expert. In his five races here, Smithely has never finished lower than 21st and has finished 12th or better in the other four. Smithley finished 8th in this race last year but this season he is in much better equipment. At the last Superspeedway race (August – Daytona), JJ Yeley drove this #17 car to a 13th place finish. I see Smithley as a top 20 driver with top 10 upside based on attrition.

Alex Labbe ($7,500 – P32), Santino Ferrucci ($7,700 – P33)

I tried to pick one of these two drivers to write up but could not separate them. Both Labbe and Ferrucci give you equal upside and ownership projections at practically the same salary. The only difference between the two is that Ferrucci has never raced on a Superspeedway in the Xfinity Series and Labbe has excelled at them. Ferrucci has been good at all other tracks and has run well on larger tracks in the IndyCar Series so I expect he will fare well here. Labbe has top 10’s in two of his last three Talladega races and has never finished lower than 25th.

Other Options: Jordan Anderson ($7,000 – P29), Jason White ($7,200 – P34)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

1. Caesar Bacarella ($6,400) – P37: Bacarella was excellent at Talladega in 2020 finishing 17th and then 13th. Earlier this season he wrecked with 6 to go and finished 38th. I look at the race earlier this year as a fluke and will roll out plenty of Bacarella in my lineups this weekend
2. Brandon Brown ($6,600) – P19: I expect Brown to be wildly underowned on Saturday with him starting from P19 and plan on taking advantage of this. Brown is one of the top SS drivers in this series and has improved his finish every race here. Since 2019, when he finished 15th, Brown has improved to the point that he comes in with back-to-back top 10 fnishes at Talladega.
3. David Starr ($4,700) – P28: “You done messed up, A-a-ron”. Starr is a superb Superspeedway racer and DraftKings showed him zero respect with this salary. The man has five finishes of 18th or better in his las six races at Talladega. Add in his finishes at Daytona where he has five straight top 20’s including a top 5 if you take out his two wrecks and this is just too easy. Play Starr on Saturday at 15% ownership.
4. Ryan Sieg ($6,900) – P17: Sieg is another driver, like Brown, who has improved as he gains experience at Superspeedways. In his last two races at Dega, Seig has back-to-back top 5 finishes, including a 2nd place finish here last season. Sieg will potentially be under 20% and could be the difference in a GPP.
5. Joey Gase ($6,100) – P39: Gase has not done well recently at Talladega, BUT he hasn’t been in good cars. His best results came in the mid 2010’s when he was driving the car he is in on Saturday. Gase has a top 5 and two other finishes of 11th and 16th in four races in the #52.
6. Joe Graf Jr. ($6,100) – P40: For a driver starting last, Graf doesn’t project to be that highly owned, but there’s good reason. In his three races here he’s never finished higher than 31st. Now if you are playing cash (WHY?!) he is a lock because there is no safer play on the slate, but for GPP’s there are better options.

Playoff Opener From Vegas!

This week the Xfinity Series joins the Trucks and Cup Series in the playoffs. Vegas is the playoff opener for the series and it will be the “easiest” and “safest” track with Talladega and the Charlotte Roval to follow.

Earlier this season we saw AJ Allmendinger ($9,800) win here at Las Vegas and led 44 laps. We saw the top four drivers in laps led in that race finished 1-4, which is not a surprise considering they are four of the best this series has.

Like with the Truck Series race on Friday night, we are looking to find some good place differential plays mixed with our 1-2 dominators. We have some amazing place differential plays in the mid-tier for this race which makes it easier to focus on the dominators from the top tier. I found it pretty simple to build lineups for this race, and hopefully, I can help you build as easily as I did.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

AJ Allmendinger ($9,800)

Starting Position: 2nd

As you saw in the open, Allmendinger was top 4 in laps led at the first Vegas race while winning. Allmendinger also led over 50 laps at Michigan (similar track type) on his way to victory there. We saw Dinger wreck his way through the finish line at Bristol to win the regular season championship. AJ is coming into the playoffs hot and will be a threat to win this race and sweep Las Vegas

Noah Gragson ($10,700)

Starting Position: 9th

Like Dorothy said in “The Wizard of Oz”, there’s no place like home. For Noah Gragson that rings true as he loves racing at his home track here in Las Vegas. Gragson has five career races run in the Xfinity Series here and his worst finish is 6th. In his 5 races here, Gragson has finished 2nd-6th but has only led 2 laps. I think Gragson can lead here, which I think he will need to do to make value. Gragson is a GPP play in my opinion with his salary as high as it is.

Josh Berry ($10,400)

Starting Position: 15th

Berry is back in the JRM #1 car for injured Michael Annett on Saturday and will look to replicate his performance when he was in the #8 earlier this season. Back in March, Berry finished 7th here in Vegas and I am sure he’d love to improve that finish. Berry also ran well at Michigan a few weeks ago where he finished 4th and led 24 laps in this same car.

Quick Hits:

Ty Gibbs ($11,000) – P6: Gibbs won at Charlotte earlier this season, another similar track to Vegas. With how well he has performed it’s hard to doubt the teenager will be a threat on Saturday.

Austin Cindric ($10,200) – P1: Cindric sits on the pole on Saturday and has three straight finishes of 6th or better here while leading 92 laps.

Daniel Hemric ($9,600) – P7: I saw it every week it seems now, but is this the week Hemric finally gets his win? I don’t know, but he did lead the most laps here in the spring and a top 5 is likely again.

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

I have two groups of drivers that I like in this tier for Saturday and they are both at similar price points.

JJ Yeley ($7,600) – P33

BJ McLeod ($7,500) – P39

Landon Cassill ($7,300) – P37

All three of these drivers offer up amazing place differential and all have shown the ability to run inside the top 25 at times this season.

Yeley will be in the #17, a car that he has had success in this season. In eight races this season in this car, Yeley has seven top 25 finishes and has four top 15 finishes.

McLeod has run Vegas eight times in the Xfinity Series and except for one race in 2020 and 2017 when he had issues, he has been great here all things considered. In those other three races, McLeod has finished between 19th and 27th.

Landon Cassill had a good day here in the Spring when he finished 21st. Cassill has run six Xfinity races at Las Vegas in his career and has run well here. If you remove the two finishes when Cassill was running the Morgan Sheppard car that always started and parked, he has finished between 14th and 21st in all four races.

If you want to go with 2 dominators, which is a build I will be using, you can mix and match these next three drivers with the three above.

Ty Dillon ($8,600) – P28

Brett Moffitt ($8,400) – P27

Ryan Sieg ($7,700) – P20

This will be Dillon’s first race in the 31 car, but he comes into this race with five straight top 15 finishes, including two top 10’s. Dillon will probably float around 20% ownership making him viable for SE or GPP.

Brett Moffitt got caught up late in the race here earlier this season so his finish is not evidence of how well he was running. In his previous two races here last season, Moffitt finished 14th ad 15th.

Ryan Sieg may be the most interesting play in this tier on Saturday night. Sieg has three finishes of 6th or better in his last five, but he also has two wrecks in that same span. It seems like Sieg either shines or drowns here making him an ideal GPP play.

Other Options: Jeb Burton ($8,100 – P14), Brandon Brown ($7,000 – P16)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

1. Ryan Vargas ($5,300) – P31: Vargas is having a good year, and typically gets overlooked. I think a top 25 is in the cards for Vargas, especially since he finished 23rd here earlier in 2021
2. Alex Labbe ($5,500) – P17: Labbe has three straight top 20’s, including a 10th place finish at Darlinton. Earlier this season at Charlotte, Labbe finished 7th.
3. Josh Williams ($6,800) – P18: Williams has never finished lower than 21st at Vegas and is a riding a 5 race streak of top 18 finishes. I think people see the price and starting positiong and back off Williams today, but not me.
4. Bayley Currey ($6,100) – P36: Currey has three top 25 finishes in four career races here at Vegas. Starting from P36, Currey offers some good upside for cheap.
5. David Starr ($5,400) – P38: Starr is another cheap high upside play in this tier. In his last four races here, Starr has finished top 30 in all four and has finishes of 19th-26th in three.
6. Dylan Lupton ($5,800) – P25: Lupton is hoping into the Sam Hunt Racing car on Saturday. This is Lupton’s first Xfintiy race on Saturday and he is in a really good car that probably has KBM funding.
7. Joe Graf Jr. ($4,600) – P21: Graf is a risky play, but he will probably carry around 5% ownership. Earlier this season, Graf finished 18th here in Vegas.

This week the Xfinity Series heads to the “Last Great Colosseum” for some night racing from Bristol! As we saw early on in the Truck Series, there will be wrecks and cars spinning towards the back of the field.

Friday night’s race will be 300 laps, so similar to Richmond last week, we want dominators. Fortunately, we have some good drivers up front and some fair pricing throughout the field. With the way pricing is, you can build lineups with 3-4 high-priced drivers who will offer you a mix of lap leaders and place differential upside plays.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Justin Allgaier ($10,800)

Starting Position: 2nd

Allgaier doesn’t project as the highest-scoring driver (only 3 points behind the top) but he should be considered one of the best options to dominate this race. With teammate Noah Gragson ($10,200 – P1) winning back-to-back races the JRM garage is on fire and I think it’s Allgaier’s turn on Friday. Since joining JRM in 2016, Allgaier has no wins (he does own a win here) but he does own six top 5’s and seven top 10’s in ten races.

Austin Cindric ($11,200)

Starting Position: 9th

Cindric offers up some place differential upside this week and isn’t the highest-priced driver. I know it’s not much PD, but a plus 8, if he wins, will make a huge difference. Last season in the first race here, Cindric wrecked out early, but in the other three races over the past two seasons, he fared much better. In those three races, Cindric has finishes of 6th, 5th, and 3rd. I like Cindric’s chance of leading some laps and getting a top 5 on Friday.

Ty Gibbs ($11,900)

Starting Position: 3rd

Gibbs won the ARCA race here at Bristol on Thursday night and will be a contender on Friday as well. In his two short track races this season, Gibbs has finishes of 7th (last week at Richmond) and 4th earlier this season at Martinsville. Gibbs will most likely pressure Gragson and Allgaier early for the lead and I expect him to lead a good portion of this race if he can get out front.

Ty Dillon ($9,000)

Starting Position: 31st

I expect Ty Dillon to be chalky in the #23 Our Motorsports car this week, but he offers some great place differential that I don’t mind eating this chalk. In four races in an Our Motorsports car this season, Dillon has finished no worse than 13th, and in the #23 he has finishes of 7th and 5th.

Other Options: Noah Gragson ($10,200 – P1): GPP only, AJ Allmendinger ($10,500 – P10), Daniel Hemric ($9,200 – P4): Another good option to lead laps and maybe win his first race EVER.

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Brett Moffitt ($8,500)

Starting Position: 20th

Moffitt does not have a lot of experience when it comes to the Xfinity Series at Bristol and short tracks in general. Looking back at his Truck Series career here, Moffitt has three top 2 finishes in four races. Moffitt knows how to work in Bristol and I expect a top 10 from Moffit on Friday night.

Myatt Snider ($7,800)

Starting Position: 17th

Last season Snider ran two races here at Bristol with two very different outcomes. In the second race in 2020, Snider was in the #93 car and had engine problems early and finished 35th. But the day before when Snider was in the RCR car he will be in on Friday he came from starting P22 to finish 5th. After a rough patch in the middle of the season, Snider has three top 10’s in his last five races.

Michael Annett ($8,300)

Starting Position: 15th

Last season Annett wrecked on back-to-back days at Bristol but that does not show how well he can run here. Before 2020, Annett had three straight top 10 finishes here. In six races since joining JRM in 2017, Annett has an average finish of 11.1 if you take out the wrecks last season. Annett is a fringe top 10 driver on Friday.

Other Options: Justin Halley ($8,700 – P5), Riley Herbst ($8,100 – P8), BJ McLeod ($7,200 – P37): Extremely safe and solid PD upside. If you can make him fit, do it. I anticipate he goes overlooked but he is in a car that can finish low 20’s. Landon Cassill ($7,700 – P35)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

1. Chad Finchum ($5,100) – P38: Could be the best place differential play on this slate. Finchum is in the #61 which has mid 20’s upside.
2. Jade Buford ($5,700) – P30: Buford has six finishes of 21st or better since Atlanta (8 races).
3. Alex Labbe ($5,900) – P14: I think Labbe gets completely overlooked on Friday night which is exactly what makes him a great multi-entry GPP play. Labbe either wrecks or finishes top 13 here, let’s hope for another 13th place finish or better.
4. Joe Graf Jr. ($5,300) – P36: He’s super cheap, fits great with 3-4 dominator builds and can’t hurt you too bad. Take a shot if you need the savings.
5. Jeremy Clements ($6,700) – P13: Five straight finishes of 13th or better at Bristol, including a top 10 and a top 5.
6. Bayley Currey ($5,600) – P40: Buyer beware. Currey starts last and is cheap but his car is not good. If he can just stay out of trouble he has top 30 potential, but that’s a big maybe.

September 11th – 20 years later

Before I get into the breakdown for this race I just want to reflect on what this day means for our country. As an American and a native New Yorker, I never forget the horrible acts of violence that were perpetrated against our country on this day 20 years ago. I always think about the people who lost their lives and the families who lost someone close to them. We must also remember the brave people who helped keep the third plane from killing thousands of more innocent American citizens on this day as well. Just as important are the thousands of firefighters, EMS workers, and police officers who ran into the buildings while others ran out trying to save lives. This is a sad day of remembrance for our country, but we must never forget the lives lost on this day.

Richmond Raceway Breakdown:

This will be a difficult race to build lineups for, but hey that’s what I’m here for! We have a lot of drivers in the top tier that we will want to roster, but unfortunately, we cannot fit them all in. On the flip side, the value section for this race is, well, absolute garbage. There are not many great plays in that price tier so we will have to be particular with what low price drivers we target on Saturday.

Richmond is a short track which means we have plenty of dominator points available in this race. With 250 laps in this race, we will need to have at least 2 drivers who can lead laps and get us as many of these points as possible. We need to weigh using place differential points versus dominator points but I think I have found a build type that will satisfy both.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Dale Earnhardt Jr. ($12,000)

Starting Position: 30th

This is Junior’s only race and he will be in his own team’s #8 car. Junior only picks one race per season to run in the Xfinity Series as a way to get a feel for his team’s cars and ability as well as feeding that itch of his to keep racing. Since 2018 when Earnhardt started running one race per season he has finished top 5 every time including a 4th place finish here at Richmond. Junior pick tracks he generally runs really well at, Richmond being one his best all time. Dale Jr. has run eight races at Richmond in an Xfinity car and has only finished outside the top 10 once (rear axle issue) and has a 50% win rate here. Junior may be popular but he will more than likely be the highest-scoring driver meaning he will be tough to fade on Saturday.

Austin Cindric ($10,300)

Starting Position: 1st

So, if Dale Earnhardt Junior is the place differential play we need then Cindric is the dominator I want to pair with him. Cindric may not own a victory here at Richmond but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been outstanding here. In six races at Richmond, Cindric has never finished lower than 13th and has two 2nd place finishes to his record. Cindric has four top 5 finishes as well and will be the early dominator in this race.

Justin Allgaier ($9,700)

Starting Position: 5th

But wait, aren’t there better options in this tier? Where are Berry, and Gibbs, and Nemechek? There will be some info on them to follow, but Allgaier is a guy I see being the Noah Gragson of last week. Allgaier will come in at lower ownership, be a potential dominator and winner of this race. Last season one man swept both races here at Richmond, yep that man was Justin Allgaier. Allgaier also has four straight top 5 finishes at Richmond. So while the majority of people will jump to the place differential plays above Allgaier, we will take the low ownership and watch them all have to play under $5K value plays when we won’t.

Ty Gibbs ($11,200)

Starting Position: 15th

I mentioned Gibbs above as someone who will be popular and I believe he will but he also has the outside chance of dominating this race. If you’ve been with us all season then you’ve seen what the 18-year-old can do in an Xfinity car. Now, one thing that does worry me is that Gibbs has two straight finishes outside the top 10 after a string where he had five top 5’s in six races. I don’t know if he has hit a wall or something just wasn’t right at those races but I think Gibbs gets back on track (pun intended) on Saturday. In 23 career ARCA races on short tracks, Gibbs has 21 top 10’s and seven victories. This season at two short tracks in the Xfinity Series he has a 2nd and a 4th place finish.

Both Josh Berry ($11,600 – P33) and John Hunter Nemechek ($10,700 – P27) are good, safe plays this week. They both project for good point days at much lower than expected ownership. I think if you are playing straight GPP’s then you can take the risk, but in cash or Single Entry, I would probably fade. All four drivers mentioned above them are in much better equipment and because of this, I rank them above Berry and JHN. I may have exposure to both on Saturday but not much.

Other Options: Daniel Hemric ($10,000 – P12) – Lower owned pivot off Cindric. He has 3 top 10’s in 4 races here. AJ Allmendinger ($9,100 – P8)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

JJ Yeley ($7,400)

Starting Position: 29th

Yeley is back in the #17 for this weekend’s race and should be a contender for another top 20. In his nine races this season in the Xfinity Series, Yeley has yet to finish lower than 24th and has four top 15 finishes. Yeley will be a semi-chalky play, but he is the salary relief that we need to help fit the top-tier guys we want in.

Noah Gragson ($8,700)

Starting Position: 3rd

Gragson is coming off a great win last week at Darlington and should be in the mix come Saturday again. In five starts here at Richmond, Gragson has only finished lower than 8th once, a 22nd place finish in 2019. If you take out that poor finish because of pit road issues, Gragson’s average finish at Richmond is 5.5.

Sam Mayer ($8,500)

Starting Position: 38th

Let me wrap up the love fest for JRM this week with a JRM adjacent car. Mayer was bumped by his owner out of the 8 and into the #99 BJ McLeod car this week. Even though this is a BJM car, it will be prepared by Jr. Motorsports and have a Hendrick-trained pit crew (just like the rest of the JRM cars do). Mayer has great place differential upside and is a decent pivot for GPP’s off of Earnhardt.

Other Options: Justin Haley ($8,100 – P4) – Finished 2nd and 6th here last year. Has a chance to lead some laps and pull out a top 5 at low ownership. Landon Cassill ($7,800 – P31) – If you have the extra salary Cassill is a similar play to Yeley. Riley Herbst ($7,900 – P20), Michael Annett ($7,100 – P10)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

1. David Starr ($5,400) – P37: Value is tough this week, Starr is cheap and safe. I don’t love it, or anyone in this tier, but Starr should get you there.
2. Brandon Brown ($6,700) – P17: Brown projects as the highest scoring driver in this tier, but his salary makes him difficult to play. If you want to fade the mid tier, then I’d go Brown.
3. Stephen Leicht ($5,500) – P36: Similar to Starr, Leicht is cheap enough and starts far enough back in the field to be worth playing
4. CJ McLaughlin ($5,000) – P39: Are you seeing a trend? Yep, McLaughlin starts next to last and is cheap. He checks the boxes.
5. Josh Williams ($5,900) – P14: I really like Williams this week. I know this is a tough sell based on where he starts, but there is some upside here. Williams has only finished lower than 18th once in the last 8 races (22nd at New Hampshire) and should see sub 5% ownership.
6. Spencer Boyd ($5,200) – P35: Slightly risky because he could lose positions but if attrition is in his favor a top 30 is in the cards.
7. Mason Massey ($5,700) – P34: Massey is back in the 78 this week so he gets a downgrade in a equipment, but a top 25 is not out of the question.
