Fantasy Picks 2020 - Bristol Results and Atlanta Picks
Bristol Wrap-up and Results
What’s there to say about this week? Bristol was Bristol with Joey Logano and Chase Elliott going for the lead, knocking each other out and allow Brad Keselowski to slip through for the win. None of our racers had the Blue Deuce but it seemed like everyone had picked the top finisher-Kyle Busch resulting in a six-place tie for the win. Congratulations to all! Social distancing restrictions and group size restrictions make it impossible to list all our winners this week. Instead we’ll go with the Bristol finishing order.

Because so many picked the same driver there was little shuffling in the points standing, but instead most maintained their gaps with Frank continuing to stay in the points lead (how many times have I said that?)
Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500-Atlanta Picks
Let’s try this again. This race was originally scheduled about what seems to be a decade ago as it turned out it was the first victim to COVID-19. First, they were going to race, then race without fans, then not race. But now we are moving back up the ladder to racing with fanless racing. Maybe someday we’ll get all the way back.
Our racers had already submitted picks on the first attempt but when the race scratched so did the Picks. Let’s see what they think about Sunday’s Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 from Hotlanta.
Take it away, PattyKay!

This pick is for that big track down in Henry County... Atlanta! Tough one to pick. So many run it well. I WANT to go with Harvick, but Kez is very tempting... but no! It's Kevin in the #4 that will win on Sunday. He won his first Cup race here back in 2001 and he can do it again.
Frank Buhrman
This has been a great Keselowski track, but I just don't think Bad Brad is going to have a two-wins-in-a-row season (this wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong with thoughts like that, though). Therefore, I'm going with Kevin Harvick, the driver with whom I've had the worst luck over the past couple of years. I'm hoping my jinx is still hiding from COVID-19, and this one will work. Go, Happy!
Vivian Simons
Atlanta brings so very many memories, especially of Alan Kulwicki and Bill Elliot. Sorry, but I digress. Picks for Atlanta are the current subject. I think Kevin Harvick in that #4 will be pulling into Victory Lane after the Cup race on Sunday. It will be a close race, but he will win!
Berra Nordin
Atlanta this time and I got some mixed feelings about the race! My first thought was how cool it would be for young Elliott win but then again this ought to be Harvick’s race to win, or maybe Keselowski goes back to back, so what to do??? Well I think I go with good ol' 7-times here, Chevys been fast this year and Jimmy has a bunch of wins here, there you have it #48 Jimmie Johnson it is for me!
Kelly Meiste
This nonsense has gone on far too long. We’re almost a third of the way through the season and no 18 in Victory Lane. That stops Sunday!' 18 for the win!
Vicq Ruiz
I like Brad K for a twofer.
Hal Ashburn
Lordy it's a hard pick this time. Kinda want to pick Chase but it's been a Ford track so Kes or Happy Harv going with the # 22 Joey.
Will Dossett
I think I'll ride along with Bowman, the Showman in the #88.
J. L. Steele
Atlanta is next isn't it? I'll go with Chase Elliott.
John Barnes
Switching it up this week, going for Sliced Bread.
David Nance
I can feel it, feel it, feel it... Put me down for the #19 this week.
