i still cant figure these bowyer odds out..baffling to me...WAY WAY off
all i can see is he did well on 1-lap practice sheets...
but his 10-lap averages werent there at all....
guess they see him on 1-lap practice charts and think oh wow hes great

I've been scratching my headon that one too. 3rd favorite at the greek. Really????Originally posted by 5mike5i still cant figure these bowyer odds out..baffling to me...WAY WAY off

tied for 4th @ the moment at dimes, but he should drop alot...Originally posted by pigpenII
theres NO BASIS for it at all, besides the 1-lap practice sheets he was top 5 most all of them....
that wouldnt even help his GWC chances
bookd are just clueless, thats why they need us to set their prices right for them
he finished 2nd like 5-6 years ago and not a top 5 since...so its not previuos success here eitherComment -
just goes to show what i say all the time...
1-lap practice sheets books REALLY pay attention to them...and they are USELESS unless u maybe bet qualifying cause thats all they are is qualifying runs most of the time
and so does joe "im clueless" non nascar fan public
only thing that even matters a little is 10-lap averages, and even that depends on the racetrack cause at least ur keeping ur speed for a little bit of a distance...Comment -
jimmie +475 now at dimes, he creeping to other books now....
thats how much u can lose not being there when they post...over a point down on the race fav already since dimes postedComment -
I heard bowyer's car bounced around the least when going from the apron up the trackOriginally posted by 5mike5Comment -
Why has Logano dropped since qualifying? Something I'm missing? I thought betting him early was a smart move...oh well.Comment -
it was a GREAT move betting him early? i didOriginally posted by pigpenII
he was +1700 on openers (well think +1500 @ greek)
now hes +950!Comment -
At least I have Edwards at a good price.Originally posted by pigpenIIComment -
well thats not THAT big a deal, still doesnt validate the odds...not even closeOriginally posted by GP
and thats def. not the reason the books dropped him like a rock from +3000 or whatever he started atComment -
Didn't realize. Got started looking at odds late. I took him +1000 before qualifying and can get him at +1200 now.Originally posted by 5mike5Comment -
yeah 20/1 on openers was the best value of the week...Originally posted by pigpenII
even yesterday +1800 i even psted that was insane great odds for him here
wins, 3 straight top 5 finishesComment -
oh srry i thought u meant begining of the week Pig...Originally posted by pigpenII
just add a few bucks and make up the diff...wouldnt take much...if it even makes that big a differnce to ya...
still not that bad though...hell we all miss early bets every week...thats why i had to add to kahne, i bet him +975 early, and added at +1300 already and he may still drop....but logano/edwards plays made up for that and much more
considered using him as cover if the #s work out but doubt i will unless i add another driver or something and #s still work out to where any of my plays payoffComment -
I guess Iwill just have to add to it. lolOriginally posted by pigpenIIComment -
yeah i would, funny i posted that above just nowOriginally posted by pigpenII
Comment -
I read that the last four times that JJ's had the fastest 10-lap practice speed, he's won the race.Comment -
Final roster
Jimmy +600
Kasey k +1400
Edwards +1600
Harvick +1400
Decided no cover in the endComment -
Boy - I couldn't disagree with this guy more.
NASCAR heads to Vegas on Sunday
By: Brian Graham
StatFox.com
The NASCAR circuit stays on the West Coast as the teams travel north from Phoenix to Sin City for Sunday's Kobalt 400. Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a 1.5-mile, D-shaped oval track completed in 1996. It was built with bankings measuring a hefty 20° on turns, and 9° banking on the frontstretch and backstretch, which are both exactly 3,330 feet (0.63 miles). The speedway is always rocking with a seating capacity exceeding 250,000 fans, and Matt Kenseth is the defending champion of this race.
Drivers to Watch
Tony Stewart (25/1) - Two poor starts to the 2014 season have certainly affected Stewart's odds in this race from last year when he went off at a much more chalky 8-to-1 price. However, this is a driver that has a pair of top-2 finishes at this track over the past three years, placing second in 2011 before winning the race in 2013. He actually has eight top-7 finishes in 15 starts in Las Vegas, and with odds that aren't likely to be this favorable again, now is the time to put your largest wager on Stewart, who is our pick to win Sunday's race.Comment -
guy is a moron....dont mind betting him as a longshot or something...
but ur largest wager? thats a jokeComment -
Im liking Brad K do it again todayComment -
Exactly - Why in the world would you recommend this to readers following you???? He also recommended a 1 unit play on Burton. Not sure I would want to do a full unit on that one too.Originally posted by 5mike5Comment -
Wow I just don't see it. Wouldn't suprise me I guess. But those odds on him are god awful imo. Id have to parlay him winning with a h2h or something.Originally posted by WolverineFan
GL though buddy he can do it for sure. Maybe I should look to a parlay with him!Comment -
Guy is completely clueless. U need to stop reading that whole site. If they let him do their NASCAR write-ups they all have to be terribleOriginally posted by pigpenIIComment -
These guys are using some better logic:
PredictionsBob Pockrass: Carl Edwards.
Edwards has a win and two fifth-place finishes in his last three Cup races at Vegas. He knows how to get around the place. This will be the weekend that Roush Fenway shows that it has a handle on the new aero rules, and with the help of solid pit calls from crew chief Jimmy Fennig, Edwards will wind up in victory lane.
Jeff Owens: Jimmie Johnson. It’s tempting to pick Kenseth to repeat or Hamlin to regain his momentum, but no one has been better over the years at Las Vegas than Johnson. And giving him and crew chief Chad Knaus seven hours to figure out a track or a new rules package is asking for trouble. Plus, Kobalt Tools is one of Johnson’s sponsors, so Jimmie haters and conspiracy theorists already have their fingers poised above their keyboards, ready to strike.Comment -
Nice name by the way Bob.Comment -
Ur right I like his opinion much better. LOLOriginally posted by pigpenIIComment -
No media member puts more effort into covering NASCAR than Bob Pockrass. He received NASCAR's media award last year. He's one of the most knowledgeable, too.Comment -
