This weekend, we head to World Wide Technology Raceway for the Nu Way 200. The race is Saturday night at 7:30pm ET on The CW. This is the first time since 2010 the Xfinity Series has returned to Gateway. In 11 of the last 12 races here, the race winner has started inside the top 10. This is the same tire setup they ran at Phoenix earlier this season, and the teams had a 50-minute practice session on Friday. Teams we’re given 2 sets of tires for practice. Gateway is a 1.25-mile oval that’s considered a flat track, but it’s not a short flat track. I think Phoenix is the best comp. I will also use Iowa and Nashville for a little more data. I think practice will be the best data to use this weekend when building lineups.

NASCAR Xfinity Series DFS Picks: Nu Way 200

The stages are 35, 35, and 90, which is a total of 160 laps. With 160 laps, we’re looking at a potential of 72 fastest lap points and 40 laps led points. After cautions, we’re looking at 90 to 105 potential dominator points. With the first 2 stages a total of 70 laps, it will be interesting to see if anyone tries to run it without pitting.
