Average drivers (between $9,000 and $10,500)

Brad Keselowski ($10,400) – Has arguably been the least exciting of the Team Penske drivers this season and is pricey for this group but won the XFINITY Series race and had three straight top-10 finishes in this race before a disastrous 39th in 2017.

Ryan Blaney ($9,700) – Has cooled off some over the last month, but always has a fast car and this might be the best price you’ll see him offer in a while if he heats back up. Finished in the top 10 at Charlotte last fall in a car that figures to be not as good as the one he’ll drive Sunday night.

Jimmie Johnson ($9,600) – He’s not racing for wins right now, as we all know, but he’s savvy enough to move up from his 23rd starting position and be there in the top 10. Plus you’re getting the seven-time Cup Series champion for less than 10 grand. Have to think about it.

Aric Almirola ($9,000) – Hard to project given the massive upgrade in equipment he got for this season, but he did manage a top-10 finish at Charlotte while he was still with RPM. And this price is nice.
