I’ve used my lineup optimizer to compile my top 30 DraftKings NASCAR driver lineups for Sunday’s Texas I race. To compile them, first I plugged my final driver rankings for Sunday’s race and the starting lineup into my driver points projection model to project how many DraftKings points each driver will score at Texas I. Then I ran those points projections through a knapsack-problem optimizer algorithm I created in Google Sheets with the OpenSolver add-on, which churned through all possible driver combinations to calculate the 30 best lineups for Sunday’s race.
The lineups are sorted in descending order of total predicted points scored, and the total predicted points have been rounded to the nearest hundredth. I posted them in a PDF file you can download and view for $3. Here’s the link: Texas I 2017 DraftKings Lineups
Note: No guarantee comes with my lineups, rankings, predictions, etc. Use them at your own risk. To get a feel for how the lineups look, check out my Kansas I 2016 DraftKings lineups.
Good luck!
Why are your lineups not available anymore.
I pulled them down to tweak two lineups, and now I can’t get them back up due to some technical problem with the content delivery system I use. Hopefully they fix it soon!
OK, the PDF is back up and it all appears to be working now. Fingers crossed it doesn’t go down again.
