The High Line – Camping World Truck Series – Chevrolet Silverado 250 – Talladega Superspeedway

Overview

The playoffs continue on Saturday for the Camping World Trucks Series, this week in perhaps the most unpredictable track, Talladega Superspeedway. Talladega is a 2.66-mile asphalt superspeedway with high-banked turns. This will be the first time for the trucks at ‘Dega this season. Last year’s race featured 14 lead changes, an 11-truck wreck early on, and just 17 trucks on finishing on the lead lap. On Saturday the trucks will go just 94 laps making it all the more important to stack the back, a common practice at superspeedway’s

Top Drivers

Parker Kligerman ($10,900)

Parker Kligerman wins wild NASCAR Truck race at Talladega

Kligerman will be driving the 75 truck for Charlie Henderson for the 10th time this season and thus far has four top 10’s and two top-fives. He’ll start deep in the field (37th) once again as he has most of the season which will make him a very popular place differential target, regardless of his salary.

Lawless Alan ($8,100)

Alan will be making his third truck series start in the 45 for Al Niece and so far so good for the 21-year-old. He’s finished 18th and 27th in his two previous appearances making his 36th starting position for this race attractive as a place differential target.

Tyler Ankrum ($10,500)

It hasn’t been a good year for Ankrum who will start 27th but he’s a good driver in good equipment starting toward the back at Talladega. He’s priced where I think he should be all things considered should be lower owned than Kligerman who is priced right above him but starting 10 spots deeper.

Tanner Gray ($7,600)

I’m not sure why Gray slipped through the cracks of pricing up everyone starting toward the back. Gray will start 26th and has finished 24th or better in four of his last five races including two top 20’s over that span.

Jason White ($4,900)

White is the value play of the slate at $4,900 starting back at 35th in the 33 truck for thr Reaume Brothers. White has driven this truck twice this season including at Daytona where he started 35th and finished 20th. White has a ton of superspeedway experience and at this price it’s going to be hard to not eat this chalk.

Also consider:

Dylan Lupton ($6,300)

Tyler Hill ($5,100)

Bryan Dauzat ($6,400)

GOOD LUCK!!
