Fantasy Predictions for 2016 Season
Top Three Drivers
1 – Tommy Lemons, Jr. – It’s his home track and he’s never won a championship at Caraway Speedway but with the short six race schedule he’s looking to do just that.
2 – Lee Pulliam – With the short schedule and no conflicts with Motor Mile Speedway, Pulliam is expected to be one of the top contenders in every race this season.
3 – Peyton Sellers – We’re not sure if he’ll compete in any or all of the events at Caraway this season but if he does he’ll be one of the drivers to beat just like last year when he competed on a part-time basis.
Breakthrough Driver
Dylan Martin – He’s young up and coming driver who won’t compete in all the races at Caraway Speedway but when he does he’ll be behind the wheel of a car for Empire Racing Group and Mike “Grumpy” Cheek. The last driver to race at Caraway for Grumpy was Christian Eckes who picked up a breakthrough win last season.
Rookie Threats
We were unable to find anyone who would be running for Rookie of the Year at Caraway Speedway this season.
