KANSAS--5mike5

Some teams not even using same car that tested today for the race in Sunday btw

Yep. Kenseth was planning on using the same car but just said - after a somewhat disappointing practice - they may change to a different one.

Cooler temp = faster speeds = blown engines

[5mike5]

racing temps in the 50-60s on sunday has the making of a long green flag drawn out fuel mileage race here...id almost bet on that

they will have tons of grip and wont be slick at all...not good for racing

[Optional]

extra practice should at least mean we can rely on most cars being setup well I guess.

[Vegas39]

Supposedly 4 teams tested tires their in July they did test so all teams on fair ground

[5mike5]

they gave it to them because Goodyear is bringing a brand new tire compound for the cup cars

[shaunovery]

Thought it was strange having a testing session

[5mike5]

yeah, but still dont understand why they just dont call it practice

[shaunovery]

The sprint cup is practicing is why there are no odds up. (Officially called testing for some reason)

Is this a extra session than normal

[shaunovery]

nice, how did you get all the points?

5 Dimes no odds for SC race right now

Moved some of my winnings from last weekends race to moneybookers and made a points purchase .still 1k in the hole with ds though so hoping for a btp big prize this week

NASCAR WEEKEND FORCECAST.... brought to u by nascar's REAL meterologist ....(and weather.com )

**Keep in mind today and tomorrow's temps will be almost 30 degrees higher than for the weekends races...so the track will be like a completely different racetrack by the weekend compared to today and tomorrows practice and qualifying session...

Highs in the upper 80's for thurs/fri, and dropping all the way down to low 60's for sat and sun racing, even could be in the 50's for the Cup race on sundayn with a HIGH of just 60 degrees

just a slight 20% for a passing shower on saturday for nationwide racing, and 0% of rain for the Cup race on Sunday

I wish I was going Rob. Sounds like a blast. Would go just for the tailgating food alone. Lol. I can only imagine the damn BBQ

Yep. The BBQ is always great. I know a number of people who camp on the infield. Hanging out with them is always an interesting time.

[5mike5]

I want some of that KC BBQ

Sure does

I'm leaving early in the morning for Kansas. Wanna be there in time for the special test session at noon.
Looks like it's gonna be a chilly weekend with periodic rain. Sunday looks dry though, so far...
Anyone else on here gonna be there? It would be great to meet someone from here.

[5mike5]

We thought about going downtown and going to the Georgia/tenn game but I just don't think I can miss the nationwide race.

[JayHorne3]

Nationwide Bets... Keselowski +375 and Kenseth +525 which may be my only bets for the NW race.

[JayHorne3]

Ouch.

speaking of what's up with Georgia only -10.5

That line has baffled me all week. Georgia's offense is disgustingly good. Tennessee has given up 10 turnovers in two games. I don't see the letdown with it being on CBS at 3:30 but Tennessee also plays Georgia really well no matter what type of season either is having. Some teams just tend to play certain teams really well like my team (South Carolina) struggles with Vanderbilt every year. I wanted to bet Georgia but now Todd Gurley is doubtful and safety Tray Matthews is questionable which would be a blow to an already suspect secondary. Think the best bet is no bet for me. Just throwing my two cents out there

[Vegas39]

Odd line assuming books think letdown after LSU game

[5mike5]

Ouch.

[Vegas39]

I trust you fully aside from TN football texts

[5mike5]

No no but he is convincing. Pretty sure he could sell a nun birth control pills

Lol. That's usually me just trying to convince myself of something I've already bet on or against.

Kennseth +435

jimmy +475
