Have fun at Kansas Rob. I remember that about Kyle last year. Think only one worse was Edwards wrecking about 4-5 times during speed weeks at Daytona

[shaunovery]

That really sucks about 5mike5 being banned. I know he's brought a lot of people to SBR. I have several friends who began reading his threads regularly after I told them about him.

I'm leaving for Kansas in the morning and will be there the rest of the week. It's looking like a good chance of rain on Thursday, but Friday and Saturday look promising.

The first thing that comes to mind at Kansas is how terrible Kyle Busch has been there. Two years ago he crashed three times in one weekend and crashed again last year. He hates the place.

Enjoy Kansas and yes Kyle not on my lists this week

[uncle vinny]

Here is the thing..mike can pick winners and has proved that. However, the thing that made me go...no dont do it....was that the wesite had several picks and not hamlin. Then he said....newsletter had hamlin. Damn kiss of death for a tout. My public plays lose but the inner circle had the winner....sign up now...

Not sayn that was the intent but the perception was such.

Mike will be fine..and propable do better without the stress of his followers.

Shit. It might have been a crafty move on his part..if so..nice work man

[CarolinaDaze]

Sorry for hijacking your other thread Shaun, i was gonna leave it alone, i really was. But then i thought what would Mike do and i remembered all the comments he made about My Family & Me. So i decided to call A Spade- A Spade 1 more time.

Mike it was once said: "anyone who's anybody" has been Banned/Suspended at SBR at 1 time or another. Give SBR a few weeks to cool down then contact them again, until then enjoy the bench.

It's fine cd , I just disagree with whys he banned it's not even his website he adds to it no money changing hands etc so what's the problem it's not if he's saying leave sbr and just read the stuff there

Yeah i see ya'lls point on that 1, seems like theres more 2 the story, like SBR either thought he was going Tout or gonna try to take away from the Nascar Forum already here. I believe SBR had something on him, when he first posted the link i thought that was gonna be trouble. But it stayed up for almost 2 weeks and then suddenly they slammed the hammer down on him without a warning or nothing.

[DDT]

I think we all knew he was playing with fire. I couldn't believe it took this long, I guess that's what happens when you hide at the bottom of the section list. Thank god Opie or the other Mike (from Milwaukee) don't pay attention to the nascar section or this would have happened weeks ago.

If we all "knew" why didnt someone warn Mike?

I told him a few times and he laughed

That's what we all loved about him (this sounds like a funeral)

[biggamerife21]

So granted Truex has been awful this year but has 3 top 5 in the last 4 here at this track shoudl that be a credit tho him as a driver or should you look to the 55 team (formerly 56) and vickers as possible sleeper? I think equipment wise the 55 is way above the 78.

[biggamerife21]

what i mean above is it the driver who has had success here or the equipment/crew chief etc.

He's crashed out mid race in all 3 races since the repave. Was always awful on old surface anyway but new one seems to be totally wrong for him for some reason!

Have a great weekend.

You're a nasty bitter back stabbing asshole CD.

Your pathetic excuse about it being ok because of some bullshit about family changes nothing.

It's fine cd

No it bloody well is not!

Guy is an asshole and you should be ashamed for saying that's fine.

Hard to trust #78 I think. Been a real under performer and not sure if car or driver or crew or what.

Truex does have a handy record here though. Vickers will get to piggyback on Bowyers team data though...

I meant it's fine to have your own opinion but not to slate the guy who can't log in to defend himself

[shaunovery]

Terrible odds from bet365

14 drivers listed under 20/1

I agree and his issue is set up related IMO not horsepower

[Vegas39]

Couple qualifying ones to start weekend

Newman +120 over Kahne

Gordon + 105 over Johnson

[Vegas39]

Hamilton -175 for F1

Hamilton -175 for F1

Think of it as a head 2 head against Rosberg

only two with any shot?

Pretty much. Everyone targets first Euro race for big upgrades so the order behind them could be mixed up, making opportunities. But would take an engineering miracle for them to be beaten in a straight race still.

Take Grosjean for a Top 6 finish at 25/1 at 5D is my early suggestion. Feel good about him qualifying top 10, which will see him about even money for a top 6.

Still might have a battle to get the top 6, depending on how well Williams and McLaren have improved, but well worth a go at those odds right now.

Denny Hamlin	+1600

Not much going on here at the track at the moment...just the trucks going through inspection. Things will pick up in a little over an hour when the Sprint Cup haulers enter the garage.

I always wondered if the $ the National Guard spent on racing was worth its results. Apparently not, according to a story in USA Today. The Guard spent $26.5 million on racing in 2012, but failed to sign one new soldier directly through it's sponsorship.

Only 20 prospects total and none join.

Must be something weird about the counting?

[uncle vinny]

looks like a little harder tire this weekend then last fall. expect 12 cautions again and short runs....leaves gordon out. biffle and brad early leans. biffle @20 for 5 units to start the weekend. expect jj to be solid as usual at 6/1 might get some of that as well

The 78 finished second here last fall.

[sweep]

excuse me! Coming thru!

Both Kyle and Logano share Kansas as their worst track for results in Cup. Both crashed out of this Truck race last year after qualifying 7th and 16th.

Sounds like an easy choice to fade the faves?

Of the experienced guys Crafton won last year but had done shit all in his previous 9 attempts. Sauter has the best stats of the experienced guys, a win and 3 top 5s from 5 starts.


Trucks SFP 250

Kyle Busch +170
Joey Logano +325
Austin Dillon +675
Ryan Blaney +875
Matt Crafton +975
Timothy Peters +975
Ron Hornaday +1050
Johnny Sauter +1100
Field (any other driver) +1350
Darrell Wallace Jr +1650
Jeb Burton +2200
German Quiroga +3300
Joey Coulter +3300

[Vegas39]

Like Sauter here well about any 1.5 he is good


Looking at Peters too

[shaunovery]

Hopefully rain won't spoil the weekend

Anyone heard from mike I messages him on twitter no reply

[milehigh]

Kinda went heavy on these two qual matchups at my other book:

Keselowski over Logano +105
Newman over Kahne +115

Both bigger bets for me (for a qual bet) and I did a separate parlay of them both...

Practice about to start. Hoping who is fast off the hauler might give a clue.

Think I'll be with you on Sauter. Can't imagine price will change a hell of a lot though, so waiting for now.

Blaney prob worth a stab too I guess.

Hopefully rain won't spoil the weekend

Yeah same here. Strangely quiet.

Good luck Milehigh. Like the first one.
