Fantasy Predictions for 2016 Season
Top Three Drivers
1 – Trey Gibson – Easily the winningest driver in South Carolina last year and a dominator of the UpState region at Greenville Pickens and Anderson Motor Speedway. Look for much of the same in 2016.
2 – David Roberts – Two-time Greenville-Pickens Speedway champion and one of the top drivers in recent years, David Robert is looking to defend his championship from last year.
3 – Dylan Hall – Second generation racer with a bright future ahead of him and some big wins under his belt in the Southeast Limited Late Models.
Breakthrough Driver
Tasha Kummer – She racked up 10 top five finishes in 2015 and she’s knocking on the door of getting her first win which could come in 2016.
Rookie Threat
Chase Purdy – With a win right out of the box in the first race of the 2016 season at Greenville Pickens in the SouthEast Limited Late Model race in early February, Chase Purdy showed he could very well be a strong contender for the Rookie of the Year title in the State of South Carolina.
Will Burns – His older brother Jeremy Burns has shown flashes of being one of the top Late Model drivers in the UpState and with Will Burns putting a focus and emphasis on running full time this season he could very well be a contender for the Rookie of the Year title.
