LOl. I see you and I are thinking the same thing. I'll add my comments below:

Well back to real racing and the first practice is underway. Jimmie Johnson has expectedly risen right to the top. Its still early to determine but as always the cream is rising to the top in California. I dont have much action on this yet but here's what I have so far:

Qualifying:
C Edwards (+125) over Dale jr (2u)
D Hamlin (+105) over B Vickers.

Race
R Newman (+105) over J Logano
J Mcmurray 30-1 to win
R Newman 50-1 to win

Good Luck everyone.

Logano Looks like ass... He finished 43rd in practice one whereas Newman was 5th. LOL, I love it when they forget to pull the odds down. I put more money on Carib for this reason....

Logano is overrated right now. He may have a ton of potential and he's with a great team but is going to wreck a ton of cars this year. He brushed the wall 5 minutes into practice and will have his hands full this weekend.

Put Newman a Hendrick car and see what he does this year.

NEEDMORECOFFEE just a tip for you stay away from big cheese's picks or should i say small cheese. He is A D- Nascar Capper at best

Looks like Gordon Will be back this year as well. Its going to be a good year Im sure. I promise you one thing even if its only $5 I will have a win Ticket on Kyle Every race.

NEEDMORECOFFEE · 02-21-09, 11:26 AM

I hope you're right about Gordon. Before final practice I was able to get him (+130) over Kennseth and another at (+130) over Biffle. I figure one of them has to be a winner.....

This has been a Rousch track, I'm on Biffle +900 and Kenseth +1000. Will add Edwards and 1 more before tomorrows race. Jimmie's damn good here too.

Adding J Johnson at what ever auto bet ends at. If you don't take Jimmie you better hope he blows a tire on the last lap. I doubled up here. Plus I slapped some on top 3. May put a small amount on Mcmuary.

How you like Johnson in this group:

Johnson
Edwards
Kenseth
Kyle Busch
Biffle

I think Johnson will win today, so i like him there. You might just as well bet him to win because chances are one of those drivers will win today. Better winning odds that way.

Yeah he had a great practice and looks like his car is dialed in.

I agree, this may be one of those races where he leads 99% of the laps... I hate betting on 3-1... Of couse Kyle is trying to win all three races, which I heard has never been done... Wildthing may be Wilder thing and take cars out trying to do too much maybr Jimmie.

Big_Cheese · 02-22-09, 04:08 PM

And I cant figure out why they are underrating Tony Stewart so much CARIB has him at 50-1. His car is pretty good. And Logano is still Fav over Newman... Lines makers are not convinced about this new race team.

Big_Cheese · 02-22-09, 04:58 PM

Only one Winner Today

Jimmie Johnson (8*)

yeah I'm nervous Kyle will do what ever he can to finish his sweep this weekend. Even if he has to wreck a few people. I took Johnson at even money to finish in the top 3. Also grabed Dale jr (-110) to finish over 11.5 and Jeff Burton (-110) over Clint Boyer.

i signed up and made a name, but i can't figure out how to pick who i want. i click on stuff and it doesn't do anything.

j0hnnyv · 02-22-09, 06:25 PM
