    NASCAR CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND (Phoenix)---

    Alright fellas we are headed out west to Phoenix International Raceway this weekend where all 3 series will be in action and will crown the 2020 champions. The truck race will be Friday night at 8pm on FS1. The Xfinity race will be Saturday afternoon at 5pm on NBCS and the weekend will end on Sunday at 3pm on NBC.

    Well we got Keselowski, Logano, Elliott, and Hamlin battling for the title in the Cup series..all 3 races should be good even though I think this track is terrible for the finale.

    Wanted to say thanks for everybody for posting their picks and opinions throught the year. It makes us all better.

    We got a few week winning streak going so hopefully we can close out the season with another big weekend. Been a crazy year and hate to see it end, but Feb will be here in no time. Good Luck this weekend and let's get it!!!!

    The only championship Future I had was my accidental play on Logano (+1100) a couple months ago.

    Won't play much pre race again probably just a couple and look over matchups again.

    Can't believe we are already at the last race.


    I hope Chase wins. But not sure what I'm betting.

    Everyone else will avoid affecting top 4 and not really worth betting even Harvick I don't think.

    Although he would happily win if he could come to think.

    Harvick made some comments he can't wait for season to be over. Think it's pretty unlikely he just gives up but imagine he'll be more likely to just go through the motions. Do I want to straight fade him? Probably not but will be interesting to see how finale goes here vs a place like homestead where you always have to take tires vs opportunity for varying strategies at phx. Also going to cool down here to mid 60s for race (90's currently) so that should only hinder tire wear which makes it even more follow the leader.

    Haven’t played as much as I usually do the last couple of months but as always appreciate your effort with the thread Mike. Crazy schedule has me watching a lot of the races a couple of days after they run. Still think it’s one of the best threads on the site.

    Threw $100 on Chase at +450. Only play this weekend.

    Hate to bring politics over here but I’m in line to cash my biggest score in almost three years if Biden results hold. A tick shy of five figures. Haven’t posted that anywhere but figured it wouldn’t hurt so share with a few friends.

    Good luck everyone and hope to see you back next year!

    this was a Denny Hamlin season. gotta imagine it will be Denny who wins this one. only other chance is Chase Elliott, who NASCAR is dying to win, which is why he won the all-star race.

    hammering both.

    Is Bovada gonna release odds for the race winner or only the championship?

    Nice payoff Jay. I wish I would’ve bet a little more on the election.

    Really liking top 3 and 5 odds on the #18 both at + odds. +275/+115.

    5 finishes in a row inside top 3 here and 9 of last 10 were inside the top 5 at PIR. Including a couple wins in that time. This being finale for first time it's obv a little diff, but still like it. May play single or in a parlay just not sure yet. Hell odds on him to W aren't too bad either

    I took a shot on Brad winning the race at +400 and winning the championship at +250. I think he has a good chance to win this weekend although I wouldn't be shocked if Chase won the championship.

    Both Bovada and BetOnline are offering odds on the race winner and the championship winner.

    Went Creed 400 and Sauter 4000 tonight. Played matchups but prices are gone so no use posting at this point.

    Since I'm used to getting CRUSHED on Larson at homestead, made some round robin bets with Creed/Allgaier/Keselowski/Chase to try and lose more than normal.

    I've never played a round robin before.

    I played 2 Longshot parlays with championship plays but just tossed a 50 on em. Other 1 above with Creed in it. Obv only 1 could advance

    Moffitt wins champ
    Allgaier wins champ
    Kyle B finishes top 5
    +2136

    basically if you hit 2 of the 3 you come out ahead. It's all the combinations so if Creed wins but Allgaier loses, I still have a chance to hit Creed with Keselowski or Creed with Chase. Just justifying losing more money on final weekend to continue tradition

    Nice hit on Creed didn't think he had a shot but then that restart happened and he took advantage.

    Nice hit guys. I tried to get on Creed but I was too late, spaced when the race started. I kept checking for live odds on Bovada and they didn’t have them. If I was enfinger I would’ve dumped chandler smith. Took away any shot of him winning. Creed getting to start on the inside was huge.
