• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Discord community. So Chip at nation dot com you were
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: one stop shop for all things DFS. I feel like
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: an auction here this morning, and that's because I'm drinking
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: nas guava Grand Prix Guava. They haven't paid me for that.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: It's just quite good. Try it out all right. This weekend.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: The Advent Health four hundred is on Fox Main Broadcast
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Fox Today with pre race coverage starting at one in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: race coverage starting at two o'clock in the Eastern time zone,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: So Maine Fox today the NASCAR Cup Series is once
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: a get headed too Kansas Speedway for today's running of
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: the Admin Health four hundred. Kansas is a one and
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: a half mile track and has provided some fantastic racing
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: in the next Gen era, So hopefully that means today's
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: race will be a good one. And that's probably why
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: it's on Maine Fox. It seems like when they assume
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: a race will be good, it gets put on the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: big channel. So let's hope. Let's hope those two things
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: equal out today. There are two hundred and sixty seven
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: laps on deck for Sunday's race, which equals out too
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: roughly one hundred and eighty six point nine dominator points.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I hit my microphone. I shouldn't have done that, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I'm recommending at least two dominators per lineup. Now. If
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: you want my exact thoughts on the dominators, you'll have
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to breathe my breakdown over at chip atnation dot com
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: or ask me in the discord if you have any
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: specific questions on said dominators this weekend, and I guess
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: at this point I should probably ex out this screen
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: and there I am full face again. Hello, you see
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: my child's playpend Behind me, there's Team NASCAR. Look at that. Huh.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: He's a little pit boy. Entire screen screen to share,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: bang and we're back around. He's a little pit boy.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I want to tell him that when he little two
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: year old self wicks up. This weekend practice was lean
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: and green, with no incidents to report. One surprise of practice, though,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: was Kyle Larson. The car in Larsen did not jive
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: at all at the start of practice. He came in
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: for adjustment after only four laps. He only came out
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: again late in the practice and put to put up
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: a five lap average and that didn't grow great either,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: as based on the twenty fifth and twenty six rankings
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: he has respectively now in saying that he did come
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: out then immediately after that practice WED session and qualify fourth.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: So this is still Kyle Larson we were talking about
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: with the Hendrick norths Sports five team backing it up.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I'm fairly sure his two slow practice speeds are probably
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: not indicative of his performance today, but it is worth mentioning.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And then on the flip side of that, Denny Hamlin
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: had appeared to be slow with fifteen to twenty lap averages,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: that's because he just had a few outlier laps. You
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: can safely assume that Denny's Toyota is just as fast
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: as every other Toyota on the block. So maybe not
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: as fast or maybe as Maybe Legacy Toyota isn't as
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: fast as every other Toyota, but we'll get to them
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: here in a second. Some other notes I wanted to
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: mention before running down the starting lineup. This is Bubba
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Wallace's three hundredth start in the NASCAR Cup Series, and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: he is a previous winner at Kansas, as he won
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the Fall twenty twenty twenty two race. Plus he is
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: in a very fast Toyota twenty three eleven JJR fast toyotas,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: So all the good vibes are surrounding Bubba today. He
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: had that incident a few weeks ago at Martinsville, he
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: had a fairly okay race last weekend at Bristol, and
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: now he's coming to a place where he has one before.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: He's in a fast car, and this is three hundred start,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: So all the positive vibes for Bubba today, and this
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: is only the second mile and a half race of
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: the season, so we don't have too much to look
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: back on as far as recent mile and a half data.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: But more importantly, this is only the second for Chevy
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: with their newly updated two twenty twenty six body style.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: So the Vegas race was four races ago and it
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: was pretty much a Toyota show then. I'm sure Chevy
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: has made changes to their one and a half mile
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: intermediate package since that Vegas race, and today will be
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: a great day to see if those changes have paid off.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I kind of think it's leaning into a Toyota day today,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: at least it seems that way so far. Be very
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: interesting to see how the how the Chevies roll out today.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go ahead and do a quick rundown
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: of the starting lineup. I'm gonna try not to be
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: too long winded. What's seven minutes in, so get your
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: stop watches out. Let's see where we go. All right,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: starting on the poll, got three Toyotas, Reddick, Hamlin, and Gibbs.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Reddick will probably be the highest owned dominator. He is
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: fantastic here at Kansas. He has great odds to win
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: he was great in all forms of practice. He has
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: one upteenth times of this season, and he is cheaper
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: than Hamlin by a substantial amount. I probably wouldn't have
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: priced him that low personally, but I'm not the DraftKings
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: pricing man, so Reddick will see a lot of ownership today.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Hamlin fantastic play here. I think he's the most expensive
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: at eleven k. Yes, so I probably wouldn't play Reddick
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: in Hamlin together, probably one or the other. And that's
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: probably why a lot of people will be clicking on
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Reddick because of the price savings. A nice pivot would
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: just be clicking on Hamlin instead of Reddick and going
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: from there. But again it's a price difference. Ty Gibbs
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: starting third, ties fast. He finally got the monkey off
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: his back one at Bristol. Sky's the limit right. Not
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: the best track history here, but he is fast now,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: so fast now and cheap if you consider ninety two
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: hundred cheap. So love type Gibbs today. Larson, we already
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: spoke about not great in practice, went ahead and put
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: up a fourth place qualifying effort. Fantastic track history, reason form,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: track type, et cetera, et cetera, it's Larson. We you
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: know it's it's it's it's young money. Kansas is the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: type of track where you you know, run the high side,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: rip the top, et cetera, et cetera. That suits his
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: driving style, like Bell, like Reddick, et cetera. So Larson
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: will get a lot of love today, but there is
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: those things to look out for. Like I mentioned earlier,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Chase Briscoe not the best history here, but he's in
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: a fast Toyota. I'll take a chance on him. Host
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: of R. I don't mind taking a chance on Host
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: of R to win. I don't think I like Host
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: of ARS a great DFS play play today. He's in
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: a Chevy that we don't really know how it's gonna be.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: He is normally fast, but do we see him dominate
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: over Reddick, Hamlin, Larson, Blaney, Bubba Bell, I don't know.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Could we see him finish top five? Yeah, but that's
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: not going to get us much from a sixth place
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: starting spot. So I'm probably out on host of AR today,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: which hurts me because I love playing host of bar
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Buscher great here, good practice. I love taking a chance
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: on Busher Suarez. I'm probably out on him for the
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: same reasons. I'm out on host of bar Blaney, Wallace
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Bell Blaney. I'll take a chance on he has a
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: My note here, my first note, huh. Blaney's team finally
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: made a change to the pit crew, as they every
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: place of the jack Man with a previous Blaney prit
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: crew member in Graham Stoddard. Blaney has been a literal
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: rocket ship all season, crazy fast, like fastest car Nascar.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: I don't even think that's a debate right. However, his crew,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: his pit crew, would screw him time and time and
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: time and time again. It is terrible. Is a change
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: at the Jackman position going to be enough to turn
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: all those bad pit stops into positive pit stops? That
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: remains to be seen. Should that be a reason to
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: play or not play him? No, because Blayney's crazy fast
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: every week, so they are at least noticing that they
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: have a issue on Pitt Road and are making changes
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: to fix that. So Lanny is in play today. Bubba Wallace,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: as I mentioned earlier, three hundred start, previous winner, fast, Toyota,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: good in practice and cheap. I'll take it. Christopher Bell,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: this track suits him. He was the fastest in the
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: thirty lap average, rip the top high wall like I
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: said him, Larson Reddick, those are that's his driving style.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: So bell love him today. Ryan Priest, I love him
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: when he's in the twenti zone back, don't really love
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: him too much since he's starting twelve Chase Elliott William Byron.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: I will take a chance on them. They'll be in
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the player pool, but I don't know how much exposure
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: I will end up getting. Eric. Could they both lead
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and dominate today? Absolutely? Do I see them doing it
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: over Larson or any of those other Toyotas. I don't
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: think so, So I don't know how much I'm going
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: to get of either of them. Remains to be seen.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Logano he killed us weeks ago. He looked not great
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: in practice. I'm out on him. Ricky Stenhouse, he didn't
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: even He wasn't even out there for a ten lap
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: or a longer run, So I'm out on Stenhouse. SVG,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I'm out on him. McDowell probably out on him. Eric Jones, Yeah, Well,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Legacy Motor Club is like the black sheep of Toyota. Now.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: They do have a technical alliance with JGR, but that
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: hasn't really brought in the finish as of yet. I'm
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: hoping that changes. I like Eric Jones. I think John
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Hunter does have some talent, but I'm probably out on
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: them today. Austin Dylon, RCR just seems in disarray. I'm
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: out on him. Brad Keselowski. I always take a shot
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: on the veteran. Not the best history or recent form,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: but decent track type rating, so I will take a
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: chance on him. Not the best in practice either, so
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: maybe buyer beware on that, but I'll take a chance
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: on Ketsilowski, Riley Herbs No. Kyle Busch, No, he he'll
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: get some ownership today. And I don't know. He just
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: seems broken. He seems broken. He Denny Hamlin, I don't
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: even say. Denny Hamlin took shots at Kyle Busch in
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: his podcast, but he just he said, well, I kind
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: of think everybody thinks that, like, maybe this RCR eight
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: team isn't good, But if Kyle Busch is the caliber
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: of driver he once was, he should be able to
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: bring that up a little bit, right, And that hasn't
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: happened yet, and I don't think it's gonna happen. He
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Kyle Busch came out like yesterday, very salty, at Denny's comments.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Kyle and the team seem like they're fighting and bickering
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: every week. I'm a Kyle Busch fan, but I can't.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think I'm going to be playing him all
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: season unless he's like dirt cheap and in the back,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: or he's starting, like you know, in a prime spot
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: for a super speedway race. It just it doesn't seem
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: worth it to take a chance when it seems like
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: something happens every single week, a spin out, a issue
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: on Pitt Road, like something happens, and until they can
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: turn it around and prove that it's turned around, I
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: think I am fully off of the Kyle Busch DFS train.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: And that was my deep thoughts on Kyle Busch. All right,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: it's sorry. Twenty fourth Corey Heim. Love love, love, love love. Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: gimme sixty nine hundred Corey Heim. We know he has talent.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: He is in a fast Toyota starting twenty fourth. Yes, yes, yes,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: gimme Corey Heim. Riley Herps go away. Put him in
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: the car full time. Gimme Corey Heim, Zane Smith, Todd Gilliland.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: I'll take a chance on both of them talk. Gilliland
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: killed it last week for us. I didn't have too
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: much exposure to him, so he didn't kill it too
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: much for me. But gili Land was had a great
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: week last week at Bristol, so let's see if you
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: can do it again today. Dinger probably not from me,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: even though he did have some decent practice speeds. I
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: just I don't know. I can't see that colleague car
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: doing much today. Noah Gregson, if you're looking for a
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: cheap play, maybe take a swing. Good practice D plus
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: for track rank sures better than F So if you're
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: looking for a dirt cheap play, who can get you
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: some PD points? He's worth a shot. Cole Cruster probably
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: know for me Josh Berry, I'll take a shot teen
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Penskey prepared car. He's not like I shouldn't say he's
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: not the greatest of a mile and a half because
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: he won his race at a mile and a half.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: But I still don't ever really put him like in
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the mile and a half category. So Josh Berry should
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: be in playpool. Yes, how much exposure, it's up to you.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Rash Chaz Stain will get a lot of exposure today.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Great track history here, but track house has been down
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: across the board lately. He'll get ownership and could absolutely
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: be in store for a good day. But I do
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: understand pivoting off of this play. Track house has been down.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: If you want them to show some you know, on
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: track speed with some finishes first, I understand. Right. So
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: John Hunter, we spoke about him with legacy, probably a
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: no for me. Alex Bowman, like I said for Ross,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: same goes for Bowman. Bowman's projected to carry a lot
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: of ownership. He has good track history here and had
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: a good practice on the flip side. This is his
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: second race back in the seat, and like I mentioned
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: last week that forty eight really hasn't been great. So
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: I wholly understand the play. I wholly understand the ownership.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I get it, I get it, I get it. I
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: I'll have some bowmen for sure. This might be a
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: chance to pivot and go underweight until that car and
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: that driver can put together a good day, because they
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: haven't yet. Austin Sindrick, I'll take a chance if I like,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: if I'll take a chance on Barry, I'll take a
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: chance on Cindric. Cindric's only two hundred dollars more and
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: gets you deeper PD Upside. So yeah, Cody Ware, no,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Connor Zilich. People will play He's track House. The team's
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: been down. I don't think he'll finish thirty six. I
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: don't know or can't really say how far he will
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: go because of how down Trackhouse has been. Should he
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: finish in the twenties. Probably is that gonna be enough?
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know. So probably not for me, especially at
• 18:39
