The Final Lap Weekly - NASCAR Talk Show

Rowdy Dragon is back with Fantasy NASCAR Picks for one of the biggest races of the entire season: the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway!

It’s NASCAR’s longest night, and that means fantasy strategy matters more than ever. Rowdy breaks down the drivers you need to watch, the top fantasy plays, potential sleepers, risky fades, and who could survive 600 miles under the lights in Charlotte.

With Kyle Busch out due to a severe illness, Austin Hill stepping into the No. 8 Chevrolet, and the NASCAR Cup Series field facing one of the toughest endurance tests of the year, this weekend is loaded with fantasy shakeups. Rowdy Dragon gets you ready for the Coca-Cola 600 with the picks, angles, and driver insights you need before setting your lineup.

The biggest racing weekend of the year is here — F1, the Indy 500, and the Coca-Cola 600 — but for Fantasy NASCAR players, Charlotte is the main event!

If you love racing, this is the weekend — and this episode covers it all!

This episode is dedicated to my Mom whom I lost on race morning of Watkins Glen weekend. She was a huge NASCAR fan, and Tony Stewart fan, she will be missed. -Kerry
