    Bingo! Actually he has been real good in practices all year, but I'm starting to believe Mike's theory that he is cursed after that All Star open debacle

    drivers will be reaching over 200 mph

    so 199 mph is quite slow

    Paying almost any attention to practices for a NASCAR bettor is the biggest mistake u can make.

    thats chapter 1 in my upcoming handbook. LOL

    Well just to fly in the face of that advice.

    I always watch all practices if I can. It's not just about times, it's about the info you can glean.

    Kyle Busch does not have the car speed, and Austin Dillon and Bowman do. Both single lap and long run.

    As long as Dillon doesn't burn his tires off the car in the excitement of being dominant like he did last week... I'm Calling him a big SPECIAL.

    All based on practice!

    I would never make a pick based on it alone in the CUP series. It will cost u way more money than it will ever win u from my experinces.. It's the #1 reason I make the money I do now compared to my when I first started.

    just cause it works for me doesn't mean it's for everybody.

    even when I look at long run avgs it screws me up it seems. And that's the 1 thing I do look at sometimes. Lol..but even that hasnt meant much of anything on raceday this season

    And could be different for lower series, I'm just talking cup events. I don't look at them in any series really, but I don't research lower series really either. Whatever helps each person win they should do

    Just seems like cup series teams are always working on diff things, where nationwide probably all working on same

    Yeah agree. It's way more relevant in NW than Cup.

    Whatever though, practice is a big part of the fun of race weekend for me, so not going to stop watching it even if it means I make less money. (I am way ahead lifetime too though. On much smaller units than you of course)

    Actually, Unit wise, I am probably not too far away from you over the last few years.

    Now just if I could grow the big solid steel balls you have to bet thousands...

    Carl Edwards +1500 (SC)

    Hit it after he ran 202 mph during qualifying. Because they will drop him.

    Yeah I know.

    I'm guessing your units are about $250 or thereabouts.

    I am about 200-300 units ahead lifetime (on my avg $25 units)

    So I would be about $50k to $75K ahead if I was betting your size.

    Imagine you are ahead of that number, but I'm doing ok bumbling along with my small stuff.

    Been wondering why the team hasn't done it earlier actually.

    Good move I think. That team has gone nowhere last 2 years.

    listened to Dr. punch interview and he said several teams are gonna be factoring in fuel mileage into their engine setups this week...

    doubt they can enough to matter too much on this track but...

    doesnt matter how much every1 bets, like u said as long as every1 is up over the season....just individual stuff and whats big to me maybe small to other posters..and small maybe big, ect

    i would have to think almost every regular poster here is doing well

    i guess but how much can they really dial it down here?

    cant imagine any1 wants to be a tick slower here just in case of fuel mileage

    not sure its ever smart to do that, unless u can have both which maybe impossible

    just what he said he was hearing

    I think I would be quite a big bigger lifetime profit if I just stuck to motorsport.

    Thrown quite a bit away on hockey in particular.

    I might be wrong about that, just a feeling.
