Ahhh ok. Didn't know he had already bet them or wanted the better odds.

Wonder if Jimmie goes to +175 or +265. LMAO. Can't wait to see odds jump on raceday too. With a huge fav the odds get so much better on almost very other driver not in top 2-3. I love it.

My plans have been in place since I saw odds Tuesday. But after the way I cashed in the spring race this track will pay me back this weekend probably. LMAO

that was a good 1 gotta give me that....

*the whole JGR team was fast as hell in qualifying, which doesnt mean anything really

Sportsbook has reopened already. Clint still at 12-1? He didnt suffer any meaningful damage when he swiped the wall did he?

No he won't need to go to a backup if that's what your asking

Thanks thats what I thought just suprised he reopened that high.

5mike5 · 10-25-13, 06:24 PM

thats where he should be priced imo....around that anyways

hes had 2 great runs last 2 races here, and i like the play, but he should NOT be single digits @ a track hes winless at

and that # WILL go down though i would think, but with hamlin/JJ front row, there gonna be ALOT of valuable odds on raceday on drivers with a chance to win this race

5mike5 · 10-25-13, 06:26 PM

denny hamlin opening @ 16-1 were the best value bettors in the room this week by a longshot

hes going off at 5-1 range now, maybe less

Using a horse racing saying here... They will still have to send out a search party to find him at the end of the race.

5mike5 · 10-25-13, 06:34 PM

the REAL NASCAR weather man (me) reporting for duty from Martinsville, Va:

0% chance of rain on saturday and Sunday races

highs in just the 50s on saturday afternoon

highs in just the high 50s, maybe get to low 60's

beautiful sunshine all weekend guys!

#2 rule in being a successful nascar bettor:

past track performance means 10x more than a driver/teams current form

(imo, and of course not always the case duh)

(and i never said he was gonna win remember, i just think its crazy as all hell any1 that thinks he has no chance)

Could single-car qualifying be on the way out for NASCAR? It’s now possible, per a competition meeting at NASCAR’s Research & Development Center in Charlotte held Thursday.
One of the items discussed was the potential elimination of single-car qualifying and a shift to a group format, similar to what is now in use for NASCAR’s road courses.
That would be implemented at all tracks except Daytona and Talladega. The two restrictor plate tracks would feature a 45-50 minute open session where drafting would be possible.
“Nothing (is) in stone yet,” Kerry Tharp, NASCAR’s senior director of competition communications, said in a NASCAR.com report. “We believe it would provide a much more enjoyable experience for the fans who are not only at the track, but those who are watching as well.”

btw, is this really more enjoyable to many people?

i dont even bother watching as it is, but this move seems pointless to me...whats so much more exciting?

i like it on road courses but ovals whats the big deal?

i guess speeding it up is smart but as far as better i dont get it

bmansell33 · 10-25-13, 11:38 PM

Hamlin 7/1 now jimmie and kyle still ahead of him

I doubt it will be more exciting but the current system isn't fair with track changes from start to end having as much to do with times as the car quite often. So why not?

I liked it when the fastest car in practice went last personally, but I think NASCAR did not like the teams sandbagging for quali position late in practice then.

Maybe in groups sorted by last race finishing order...

5mike5 · 10-26-13, 09:03 AM

Good points there opti didn't think a out those angles

5mike5 · 10-26-13, 10:32 AM

god damn denny hamlin -110 for the truck race.....oh i just looked hes also on the pole

hell i never study or the trucks, but im sure hes won probably several at this track in a truck... especially here im sure hes won a ton of them

no value there even if u parlay him to win really
