Fantasy NASCAR game: Post-Daytona, pre-New Hampshire picks

Geez, where has the season gone? For those of you who haven’t won yet, there are only eight weeks left to make the Fantasy Chase.

The six smart people listed below — including four new winners — picked Aric Almirola to win a rain-shortened Daytona race. How’d they guess that???

That’s actually only 101 people — of the 326 players, 235 are already in. Kinda crazy.

Anyway, let’s check out the picks for New Hampshire. The most popular picks are Brian Vickers and Ryan Newman, which makes sense.
