- 0:42down the food City five hundred at Bristol Motor Speedway. Before we get before
- 0:50we dive into today's slate, let's, of course do a little bit of
- 0:55our promoing and bookkeeping to kick off the show. If you haven't already been
- 1:00aware, we have a brand new promo code for this week. It is
- 1:04Masters fifteen. That's right. Join for the players, stay for the masters.

- 1:27fifteen percent off, you'll be get all of our content for the Masters.
- 1:32So that's projections, ownership course, fit tier rankings, coren value reports,
- 1:38player pool slate plans, the Stone which we'll be using today for NASCAR showdown
- 1:44slates, the PGA Education course, everything for PGA. If you would join
- 1:51the PGA only plan with code Masters fifteen, all right, Masters fifteen,
- 1:57Join for the players, stay for the masters. All right, let's go
- 2:00ahead and break down today's slate, which is the Food City five hundred from
- 2:07Bristol Motor Speedway. We have five hundred laps up for grabs today, which
- 2:15is three hundred and fifty total dominator points. All right, So three hundred
- 2:20and fifty total dominator points are up for grabs on DraftKings and Friends. We
- 2:27want to grab all of those points that we possibly can, all right,
- 2:30so we I'm probably playing at least two. I'm going to try to jam
- 2:38in three potential dominators in each of my lineups. And one thing I want
- 2:45to mention for ship at Nation members. This week on the Stone, we
- 2:49have updated the High Upside color category to be our dominator category, so our
- 2:58drivers that we consider to be potential dominator planes will now be color coded in
- 3:02teal on the Stone. So that is new for this week and as well
- 3:07as starting next week on the Stone, we will have a recent form column
- 3:13just to track the drivers as they progress throughout the season. All right,
- 3:19let's see here what did I miss? Ah? Yes? Of course?
- 3:22Race start time three thirty pm on Fox here in America and for our friends
- 3:29in Canada, channel change TSN four in Canada. This weekend Okay, so
- 3:37three thirty pm on Fox and three point thirty pm on TS and four.
- 3:45All right, let's go ahead here and bring up the Stone, or rather
- 3:50the blank version that I use for our videos of the Stone. Yeah,
- 3:55and I'll break down some of my favorite drivers in place for today. One
- 4:00thing I did want to mention before I break down some drivers is this is
- 4:05only the third proper next Gen race here at Bristol. And you might be
- 4:14asking yourself what do you mean by proper, Well, NASCAR comes to Bristol
- 4:17twice a year, and Bristol, I would consider is a crown jewel of
- 4:23NASCAR. Is one of my one of my personal favorite tracks, and I
- 4:27would say it's the favorite track of a lot of diehard NASCAR fans. However,
- 4:34in twenty twenty two and in twenty twenty three, for some reason,
- 4:41they meaning NASCAR and the folks who own Bristol Motor Speedway decided they wanted to
- 4:46bring in dirt and they covered Bristol Motor Speedway with dirt for the spring race
- 4:53in twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three. And we can't really count any
- 4:59of that data because they were racing on dirt. A whole all different surface.
- 5:03So we only have two proper next gen races here at Bristol Bristol to
- 5:10look back on, but I think they should give us a pretty big insight
- 5:14on what to look out for on Sunday. All right, drivers who we
- 5:20some of my favorite drivers of the slate. As always, I'm just going
- 5:25to pick out four. And if you have any questions on any drivers or
- 5:30anything like that, of course I will be in the discord. I am
- 5:33the game on Discord. I will be in the discord and be available all
- 5:38day on Sunday. All right, My first play, favorite play of the
- 5:44weekend, and it's kind of like I'm cheating, is Ryan Blaney. Ryan
- 5:49Blaney ten DraftKings twelve thousand on fan Duel has qualified on the poll for today's
- 5:58race. And if you are looking at my screen here you will see he
- 6:01was also the fastest in every single portion of practice, the one, the
- 6:06five, the ten, the fifteen, the twenty, and the twenty five.
- 6:11Now, one thing I do want to mention about the practice speeds here
- 6:15is the first practice group. Group A did have a little bit of an
- 6:23advantage when it comes to when it came to practice. So while I don't
- 6:29want to say all of these speeds are skewed. Definitely, the drivers that
- 6:33practice in the Group B did have a little bit of a disadvantage. And
- 6:39I think starting next week, now that I'm literally looking at this, I
- 6:43think I'm going to color code these drivers on the right side of the stone,
- 6:47which you currently can't see on my screen share. But I wanted to
- 6:50be color coding the drivers on the right side of the stone next week with
- 6:55their practice group that they're in Group A or Group B, so that way
- 6:59we have that data moving forward. But anyway, Ryan Blaney, Ryan Blaney
- 7:02qualified on the pole and was fastest throughout all of practice. He also has
- 7:08fairly good track history here at Bristol in the next gen car. However,
- 7:14he really doesn't have finishes to go for it or to show for it,
- 7:16rather as he's always ran into bad luck. However, he starts on the
- 7:23pole, what does that give us the very best pit stop rather the very
- 7:29best pit stall selection. And at Bristol, we're running laps, as you
- 7:33can see here in the fifteen second range. Okay, so it's almost four
- 7:41laps a minute. Cars go a lap down very very quickly here at Bristol,
- 7:46and one way to avoid that, or to avoid getting caught up in
- 7:50any of the accidents that happened at such a small track is to be out
- 7:55in front, which is where Ryan Blaney will start on Sunday. So I'm
- 8:01gonna say Ryan Blaney's probably my favorite dominator play for Sunday. There's a few
- 8:07others I also like as well, but with his price tag being not as
- 8:13expensive as the other high tier drivers like Larson, Hamlin or Bell and starting
- 8:18on the poll with that, with that first pit stall, and that's it's
- 8:22shaping up to potentially be a pretty good day for young Ryan Blaney. The
- 8:26next two drivers I want to speak about didn't have the best of days with
- 8:31qualifying, and that would be one Chris Buscher who qualified thirty fourth, and
- 8:37one Ross Chess Stayin who qualified thirty six. Now, one thing I will
- 8:43want to show with both Buscher and Chastain is their practice speeds do not match
- 8:50where they qualified. Since I'm highlighting Chas Stayin right now, you'll see his
- 8:54practice speeds were fourth and the one, three in the five, two and
- 8:58the ten, then heied thirty six. Chris Busher was twelfth in the one
- 9:05ninth in the five eighth and the ten and qualified thirty fourth. Both of
- 9:11these drivers almost lost control of their cars during their qualifying lap and they had
- 9:18to get out of the gas during their qualifying lap to save it from hitting
- 9:24a wall. That's why they are both starting in thirty fourth and thirty six
- 9:28position. For you cash players out there, I normally don't like to recommend
- 9:35drivers who start in the back at Bristol, but I feel like Ross Chastain
- 9:41is probably gonna be your cash play of the day. He starts dead last
- 9:46so he won't lose you, and he plays differential points eighty five hundred bucks.
- 9:54Track House Racing is a great team. Yeah, he's He should be
- 10:00a lock for your cash games. And the same really goes for Chris Buscher.
- 10:05Chris Buscher has fantastic history here at Bristol. Led one hundred and sixty
- 10:09nine laps here in the Summer Race of twenty twenty two to a victory and
- 10:16finished I believe he finished let's see here, where did he finish? Yeah?
- 10:26I forget where he finished in twenty three, but he did lead and
- 10:28lead one hundred and sixty nine laps and win here in the summer of twenty
- 10:33twenty two, Chris Buscher, Are they going to be Chalky? Absolutely?
- 10:39If you're in GPPs, should you potentially go underweight on both of these plays?
- 10:43Sure? However, they are stellar drivers. They are starting in the
- 10:50rear and for all intense purposes, they should be able to work their way
- 10:56through the field. But this is Bristol. You never know what could happen.
- 11:01Then the final driver I want to highlight this week. He's a driver
- 11:05who hasn't necessarily had the best of luck here at Bristol lately, or really
- 11:11the best of luck in general at Vegas or Phoenix, and that would be
- 11:18Kyle Busch. At one time in NASCAR history, Bristol was absolutely Kyle Busch's
- 11:26playground. Throughout Kyle's career, he has eight eight victories in the Cup Series
- 11:35here at Bristol, followed by five second place finishes here at Bristol. That's
- 11:41just in the Cup Series. That's not counting trucks, which he is racing
- 11:46right now as I am recording this video, or the Busch Series, all
- 11:52right, So that is he has been amazing here at Bristol in the past,
- 11:58hasn't been so great here in the next gen car. However, we
- 12:03only have two races really took for our sample size for the Bristol next Gen
- 12:07track history. He was good in practice, second in the one lap,
- 12:13ranks seventh in the five lap, and he qualified middle of the road in
- 12:18fifteenth. Uh. If they're not that, I think, how should I
- 12:24say this? Not that I think that Kyle season is in disarray already.
- 12:30We're only you know, in the fifth race. However, after twenty what
- 12:35he finished twenty sixth and Vegas and twenty second at Phoenix with a multiple bumbles
- 12:41on Pitt Road. That's not the Kyle Busch were used to. And if
- 12:48he's gonna turn it around, I think he has a pretty damn good chance
- 12:52to do it at Bristol, at least that's what I'm hoping for, because
- 12:58because this used to be his playground and he's starting fourteenth and he should be
- 13:03able to make it once again his playground. So that's everything I have for
- 13:09my notes here for Bristol. I need to go start work on or rather
- 13:13I need to go finish up work on the NASCAR stone and our projections for
- 13:18everything, and then of course I will be in the discord for any and
- 13:24all questions leading up to our locktime on Sunday afternoon, just making sure missing
- 13:31anything. Nope, I got all my notes covered perfect. All right,
- 13:35everybody, thank you once again for spending fifteen minutes with me. I much
- 13:41appreciate it. I will be the discord once again. I am the game
- 13:45on the ship and Nation discord. Any questions please feel free to tag me
- 13:48and as always, let's have ourselves a Sunday and of course let's ship it.
