2026 Pennzoil 400: Top NASCAR DFS picks, lineups, Las Vegas driver pool from a daily Fantasy pro

The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Vegas this week for the 2026 Pennzoil 400 on Sunday at 4 p.m. ET. Tyler Reddick won the first three races of the season, but Kyle Larson and Joey Logano have combined to win seven of the last 14 NASCAR Vegas races. Thus, NASCAR DFS lineups would love to feature all three drivers, but they'll set back your daily Fantasy racing salary cap quite a bit. So, which under-the-radar options could you utilize as Pennzoil 400 DFS picks to balance your NASCAR Vegas DFS lineups?

Before locking in your NASCAR DFS lineups for the Pennzoil 400 2026, you NEED to see what Mike McClure has to say.

McClure has won over $2 million in his career as a daily Fantasy pro, and his NASCAR DFS driver pool, projections and advice can help you score a big win on Sunday. 

McClure's model began the 2025 season by calling Chase Elliott's win in the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray for a +300 payout. Then it went on to predict Kyle Larson in Miami (+350), Christopher Bell's NASCAR All-Star Race win (+600), Denny Hamlin's wins in Michigan (+650) and Las Vegas (+650), Shane van Gisbergen's win in Mexico City (+330), Elliott's win in Atlanta (+1500), and van Gisbergen again in Chicago (+150), Sonoma (+125), Watkins Glen (+135) and Charlotte (-105).

All told, the model has nailed a whopping 29 winners since 2021 and hit 11 winners in 2025! Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks could have seen HUGE returns.

Now, McClure has turned his attention to Vegas on Sunday and is revealing his top NASCAR DFS picks, NASCAR DFS lineups and driver pool.

For NASCAR at Vegas, McClure is building his lineups around Kyle Larson ($14,000 on FanDuel). He's also rostering Chase Elliott ($9,500 on FanDuel), who is off to a hot start and is fourth in the Cup Series standings. He also has three career stage wins at Vegas, as well as three top 5 finishes.

McClure is also targeting an undervalued driver set to return HUGE value for your NASCAR DFS lineups! He's in prime position to make a run at the checkered flag, and it comes at a price that won't break the bank. This pick could be the difference between cashing HUGE in your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing.
