• SAFE PICK: This week Kurt Busch is a solid pick for the Food City 500. Over the last five seasons Busch has five wins at Bristol. Be aware that a safe pick does not always make a good one. It can be easy for a driver to get lapped on this track and not recover. Be very selective of a driver who can normally stay out of wrecks.
• CONSISTENT: To be successful at fantasy it is imperative to select drivers that have consistent finishes on a certain track. This week that diver is Jeff Burton. He seems to always manage a solid finish at this demanding oval. Don’t rule out Ryan Newman either. He might be a good driver to have selected for qualifying points. He does hold the track qualifying record of 128.709 mph.
• POINT AND PICK: C drivers this year has not given fantasy players much to work with. There have only been several of these drivers that finish high enough to make a difference in the fantasy points standings. Brian Vickers has the best average finish so once again he will take the top spot as one of the C drivers for this week’s race.

Barring any changes to the car, I'm going to give Kvapil the nod this week and see what he can do. I got a few points because of the rain and have a feeling that Gordon can get the drop on Johnson to lead some laps for a while.
I should have used all my second drivers ... Thats all I am going to say ...
I was able to move up one spot to 6th place and I'm less than 100 pts. out of first place. Erik is about 60 pts. behind me in 15th spot. I've been lucky in the past couple weeks but with big setbacks. Had Edwards not lost his transmission 2 weeks back and had Kyle Busch not fell back Sunday I may be closer to leading this thing. I've got a feeling that Erik is about to step it up and make me work to keep my lead.
