if i mean if i was only wagering a total of $500, i wouldnt bet more than 3 maybe 4 tops for any race because i would want a much larger return on my money, but like i said its all individual

Thanks for the advice and I'm taking it slow and trying to absorb as much as I can. $500 is pretty low for me in terms of dutch betting.

I want a nice return, so I will probably take 4 drivers and bet a few head to head.

By the way, I excel at college bb. So if I can help anyone come November, let me know. College bb pays for my other sports.

Any H2H's looking good for Trucks, boys???

**Vegas39** · 10-06-12, 01:11 AM

I agree with James Finch

Finch says start-and-park teams make too much: Team owner James Finch hopes his #51-Phoenix Racing car remains on the track in 2013, but he'd like a little help from NASCAR to do it. Finch, who is losing driver Kurt Busch to Furniture Row Racing, wants to race for more money, and he isn't asking NASCAR and the tracks to spend more-just pay less to teams that start a race and park early. With typically five to seven Sprint Cup teams parking their cars early each week, Finch believes teams that finish in the top 35 should earn significantly more money than those that park early and finish in the back of pack. "I'm trying to get NASCAR to move some of the money up that the start-and-park guys are getting so we can race (for it) from 35th to 25th," Finch said Friday at Talladega Superspeedway. "I'm getting (as little as) $2,000 more to run 500 miles than they do to play. Move it up and if they want it, let them race or it. & That's not racing." Finch, whose team is 27th in the owner standings, so far doesn't have sponsorship for 2013. Because NASCAR is switching to a new body style for 2013, Finch said he will finish out 2012 to best use his inventory of cars. "What am I going to do with these cars?" Finch said. "When I get through (this year), I throw them away."(Sporting News)(10-6-2012)

Problem for NASCAR is they pay that way to ensure the grid is full. They are less likely to change it because 7 teams park than they would be to if only 2 teams parked.

**Vegas39** · 10-06-12, 01:25 AM

Rather see 36 trying to go to end than a team running 10 laps and cashing a check

**yisman** · 10-06-12, 08:00 AM

yeah thats tough yisman...they both usually qualify well at talladega

**5mike5** · 10-06-12, 08:36 AM

THE FIELD (+600)

**i like Armirola anyway and theres a few others plus any1 can win this thing...remember John King at daytona this yr??

i might take 1 more driver to win but no idea who yet

the only H2H will just be a longshot parlay (2-slot)

**5mike5** · 10-06-12, 12:47 PM

started open 3slot parlay:

Bodine Over White (+110)
Peters over buescher (+135)

**Optional** · 10-06-12, 01:23 PM

Amirola is a good pick I think Mike.

Still like Bodine and Beuscher best myself.

Wow didn't expect that qualifying from Newman

Why not??

Has anyone else noticed that since the Parrot/Ford crew chief swap Amirola has out qualified, and last week out-raced, Ambrose?
