    Kenseth stood out to me to

    Sprint Cup old nextel cup
    Nationwide old Busch series

    Khane at 35:1 might have a little bit of value...I know he can drive and a lot of last years troubles were due to a new program with car setups that was entered wrong leading to poor setups at most of the tracks. I look for Khane to win at least 4 races this year and should be much more competitive than last year. Being a Dale Jr. fan I will probably lay a little on him at 7:1 mainly due to the fact that he was highly competitive last year in DEI equipment...blown engines led to the demise of his hopes...and Hendrick has much better equipment....Kenseth always has value for this bet but I think he is getting far too content just riding around in some races and hoping for a good finish instead of going out and earning it....if not for his crew chief he would not have nearly the amount of decent finishes that he usually gets.

    That's something to think about, Kenseth gets a new crew chief this year. Robby got kicked upstairs.

    Harvick and Burton have good value, IMO, both at 25-1.

    I would have thought Harvick would of won a championship by now, but every year he disapoints.

    I like Kyle Bush this year as an underdog, and I think that Jr will also have a chance with the new equipment.....

    Stay away from Smoke it will take another year or so for Toyota to get their shit together and I dont care how good a driver he is this is not going to be a good year for Gibbs Racing....I dont even think smoke will make the chase.

    Kahne has good value but after last year I would not put my money on him

    I see all of Hendrick motor sports making the chase this year so anyone of them would be a good bet.....

    Hawk,

    You are correct my friend... Look for Kyle Busch to win 5 or 6 races this year! I think he has a great chance to win the championship if he can keep the car out of the wall and not have too many DNF'S!
