NASCAR DFS: ToyotaCare 250

NASCAR DFS: ToyotaCare 250

This article is part of our NASCAR DFS series.

AJ Allmendinger unsurprisingly took down the first road course race of the season last weekend at COTA in an interesting debut of the new no stage break rule at road courses. We now shift to Richmond for some good old fashioned short track racing.

It has been an impressive start to the year for John Hunter Nemechek and his history here at Richmond is very strong. He has finished top three the last two years here without a win. Austin Hill, as you probably know, has three wins already on the young season and has been one of the fastest cars at pretty much every venue. This price tag interests me as a step down from the $10k range. Another driver with a strong start to the year is Riley Herbst who has a top ten in every race to date. He was also fifth here the last two years, I think Herbst is a sneaky pick to win this thing as well. Ryan Sieg has been top fifteen in the last six races at Richmond and for this price tag, I'll be going right back. Alex Labbe and Jeb Burton have decent history for the price as well and have both been running inside the top twenty most of the year.
