Daytona Week Notes Thread (updated frequently)
these are the notes that used to be on the optimizer tab....
moving this post to a static page, so it does not get buried
Cup
- Clash Package and Week 2 DRC package will both be LOW downforce. The 2020 race was high downforce.
- Keselowski and DiBenedetto hint that the the DRC clash race will be a test session
- What the drivers had to say about the Daytona Road Course - https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2020/08/16/chase-elliott-denny-hamlin-martn-truex-kaz-grala-jimmie-johnson-what-drivers-said-after-daytona-road-course-race/ (This is always one the most useful weekly articles for DFS players.)
- Clash - competition caution on lap 15 of 35
- Qualifying draw - Monday 9pm
- Busch has signed on to sponsor the event. I wonder how much of a discount they received by playing hard ball and letting negotiations to last until the week of the race. Yet another sign that this is an economic bubble.
- Stenhouse post added.
Xfinity
- Races with qualifying = 36 car field
- Non-Q races = 40 car field
Trucks
- Races with qualifying = 36 car field
- Non-Q races = 40 car field
- The No. 98 truck will see a change as Grant Enfinger, who finished fourth in the 2020 Truck Series point standings, will move to part-time and will share the entry with Christian Eckes this season. Champion Power Tool will return as a sponsor on the truck. https://tobychristie.com/2021/02/04/thorsport-racing-confirms-swap-to-toyota-and-announces-driver-lineup-for-2021/
