Last year, both the spring and fall editions of Kansas Speedway and Charlotte Motor Speedway’s two races run were back-to-back. This gave the teams some consecutive time on two of the seven similarly-configured, 1.5-mile tracks of Atlanta Motor Speedway, Charlotte, Texas Motor Speedway, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Kansas, Chicagoland Speedway, and Kentucky Speedway and allowed them to generate some momentum.
This year, the two races are interrupted by Dover International Speedway and the All-star break, which will give fantasy owners an extra week to examine the data from the GoBowling.com 400 before committing to Charlotte’s roster. Then Pocono Raceway is on the schedule, followed by the two-mile Michigan International Speedway that many believe is similar to the 1.5-milers.
The series is stutter-stepping its way to the summer and what was once the traditional halfway point of the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway. Even though it is technically one week from the center, that still demarks the season and gets fantasy players prepared for a long stretch to the Chase.
