This week’s fantasy NASCAR Talladega picks and projections are going to be a bit different. With the highly unpredictable nature of Talladega and it’s 188 lap distance, projecting this race lends itself to a different kind of projection. Due to the fact that cars run in a large pack at Talladega, the fastest lap each lap is simply determined by either who has the biggest push or the biggest draft. Thus, the distribution of fastest laps is completely random. So there’s no use in projecting them using traditional methods.
