NASCAR - Auto Club 500

[onlooker]

This race starts at 3:30pm EST.

Is anyone going to take any head to head matchups? Biffle won the Busch race yesterday, and he won the Auto Club 500 last season. So he does well on the Fontana track.

These are my 5 drivers for my ESPN Fantasy team:

Kurt Busch
Jeff Gordon
Jamie McMurray
Kyle Busch
Kasey Kane

All the above drivers have a good average finish on the track in California, in both races there.

Here is what I played yesterday:

2* Manufacturer to win Auto Club 500, Dodge/Ford -125 (VIP)
1* Best finish by Chevy - Kyle Busch +450 (VIP)
1* Jamie McMurray -124 vs. Kasey Kahne (Pinnacle)
1* Best finish by Dodge - Kurt Busch +200 (VIP)

So we are thinking pretty much on the same lines, onlooker. Biffle is probably a good value at around 6-1, but I didn't play any "To win" bets this week.

Looks good Razz. That Dodge/Ford prop should come in for you. Rouch does well at California and the Dodges did good in qualifying on Friday.

Good luck with your bets Razz.

Anyone else have anything going on the race? I didnt bet anything, just have my fantasy team line up going.

Race starts in 30 minutes, anyone else have anything to add?

For Stewart haters, he just blew a left front tire on lap 123. He had to pit under green. He was in 6th when this happened.

Only thing is, the rest of the cars may have to do a green flag pit, unless a caution comes out.

Matt Kenseth wins the Auto Club 500. My favorite driver on my favorite team, Roush.

Well, the Busch's let me down, but at least the big bet won.
