Streaking in Loudon

Streaking in Loudon

LOUDON, N.H. (July 13, 2011) -When the green flag drops at New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the LENOX Industrial Tools 301 on Sunday, there is a good chance a fresh face will visit victory lane.
"The Magic Mile" boasts a statistic unlike any track: there have been six different winners in the past six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races.
The streak of different winners started at the 2008 LENOX Industrial Tools 301 when Kurt Busch claimed his third NHMS win. Since then, Greg Biffle captured his only NHMS victory during the 2008 SYLVANIA 300. New England native Joey Logano got his first and only NASCAR Sprint Cup Series win during the 2009 summer event. Mark Martin battled Juan Pablo Montoya for a hard fought SYLVAINA 300 checkered flag in September of 2009. Jimmie Johnson hoisted Loudon the Lobster last June on his way to an unprecedented fifth championship and, most recently, Clint Bowyer kissed the Granite Stripe after winning last September.
Not only have there been six different NASCAR Sprint Cup Series winners at NHMS, but until last June, the NASCAR Nationwide Series saw 23 different winners in 23 races. Kyle Busch broke that streak last year dominating the 2010 New England 200. Busch will also go for his 100th NASCAR win this weekend.
Don't miss your chance to see all of the NASCAR action at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, the only track on the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series circuit that hosts both a Race to the Chase event and a NASCAR Chase for the Sprint Cup race.

NOTE 'N FANTASY TRACK TIPS

Know The Track -
NASCAR races are run on a variety of tracks such as flat tracks, road courses, super speedways and short tracks.
Some drivers do better or worse on different track types so check their stats. If the race is on a short track like Bristol or Richmond, where wrecks can be frequent, consider starting fewer big names and go with guys who will be spread out through the pack. That way a wreck up front won't take out all of your drivers.Check The Average Start Position -
If your league awards qualifying points, you'll want to have drivers in your lineup who consistently qualify in the top 4 to increase your chance of getting extra points.
Who Won The Nationwide Series Race Yesterday? - There is usually a Nationwide series race the day before a NASCAR Cup series race. Many of the Cup drivers compete in the Busch race and drivers who finish well there usually do well in the big race the next day, sometimes with back to back wins.
