Ankrum only has 2 career road course starts in NASCAR to his resume, but in those races he finished top 10. Last year, Tyler finished 6th in the road course race here at Daytona. Ankrum will have quiet a bit of work to do on Friday night as he will be starting in the 26th position. Johnny Sauter has a ton of experience on road courses through his career in NASCAR, and at Bowmanville in 7 races only finished outside the top 10 one time. An issue during the race at Daytona Road Course in 2020 was big reason Sauter finished 21st and I expect a better effort on Friday night from the veteran. Take Sauter here over Tyler.
Jeff’s Pick Johnny Sauter -112 over Tyler Ankrum -118
