Sprint Cup Series at Fontana Preview and Fantasy Picks

Zachs-SCS-Preview-Fantasy-PicksHere are my picks for the Auto Club 400 at Auto Club Speedway, on March 22, at 3:30 pm ET on FOX

Contenders

Kurt Busch– Jamie McMurray said it best on twitter in saying,

 “We sucked.”

Those were the words Denny Hamlin used to explain his day at Phoenix International Raceway this past weekend where he and his Joe Gibbs Racing teammates struggled immensely. Hamlin went on to say,,,

“All of our cars suck right now, there’s Kevin Harvick there’s the Hendrick cars, and the Penske cars and everybody else, we’re (Joe Gibbs Racing) everybody else right now.”
