Jimmie and Edwards at +650. Will add 2 more later.

Took JJ and Edwards at +650 for half a unit each too. Probably top up more on both before race time.
Dingers best track for quali and 8th best for results
Ambrose 4th best for quali and 3rd best for results
Hoping to get +1000 or better for Top 10 on those 2.
Vickers is up at +125 to beat Kahne in quali. Kind of tempted by that price. Who knows if he is really race fit in the head yet, but I'm sure he is still the same qualifying stud..Comment -
Rain in the forecast sat and sun. I hope it gets rained out then I can go there monday, heheComment -
It deserved a double sinister. Qualifying will probably be last practice speed.Comment -
If they think that at least no one will be sandbagging on us this week..Comment -
New qualifying rules start this week.
The qualifying order will be based on the slowest to fastest practice speeds. If bad weather cancels qualifying, the starting lineup will be determined by practice speeds. The lineup would be set by owner points if weather forces cancellation of practice as well.Comment -
5dimes moves those numbers. Hamlins at +600 and Edwards at +700. Need to stay on top of these guys.Comment -
Edwards is a great pick. I still like Mark Martin and Newman as dark horses.Owner/Cool Works CupComment -
Ku busch does well here tooComment -
ya i like edwards at +700 but dont like how everyone likes himComment -
Fords don't look so hot in practice so far. All Dodge/Toyota early..Comment -
don't really see a legit contender that stands out yetComment -
What do you guys think about the qualifying order? Looks like a few of them did sandbag it after all. :\

Tony Raines
Travis Kvapil(i)
Trevor Bayne(i) <-- first four either had issues or are genuinely slow.

I'm mostly interested as it messes with the capping system I used last year.
.Comment -
Also, I just noticed that Kurt Busch is listed as 39th fastest in final practice on Jayski, yet is listed to qualify last?
The rest of them seem to be in order of final practice speeds apart from Kurt.
Anyone know why?.Comment -
I always liked Stewart at this place, a driver’s track.Comment -
Nascar deems that they can do pretty much what they want to do. So they can, if they wish to, count 1st practice as qualifying eligible. He, Busch, smoked 1st practice. J Johnson didn't hardly even run laps 2nd practice. Nether did a couple others. C Edwards, at the end of 2nd practice, apologized to his crew for running too fast of times. Opti this is bullsh it. Capping is going to be much harder.Comment -
Just took ambrose at +9000 to finish in top three.Owner/Cool Works CupComment -
and to make it worse no happy hour after qualifying, I've always hated these these impound races anywayComment -
Maybe next week it will be clearer. With just 1 practice pre-qualifying.
If qualifying is set for about 4pm, they all should want to be qualifying last anyway. Hope NASCAR thinks about that.
Watching Nationwide qualifying now and it's quickly becoming obvious the first part of qualifying is going to be a guaranteed bore from now on too..Comment -
I put that bet in at Sportsbook.com. (I hope they pay out!) I had some money sitting from a long time ago.Owner/Cool Works CupComment -
I'm going to grab $20 on that too. (should be a real test to see how they handle an $1800 withdraw request on Monday if it wins)
*Edit: Damn it, was too slow..Comment -
who says Nascar advertising doesn't work? Newman went to qualify and I went and threw a Tornado in the microwave.Comment -
Any good?.Comment -
yeah, actually not too bad for microwave fare. much better than a hot pocket, and better than the taquitos my kids likeComment -
They look "interesting" on the ads. Haven't seen anything like them down here. :\.Comment -
Adding
Kurt Busch +750
Joey Logano +2500
Juan Pablo Montoya +3600.Comment -
adding K Kahne +2500Comment -
Good luck to everyone!Owner/Cool Works CupComment -
reaching for winner picks on Newman, Biffle, McM, Logano, Ragan. around a +550 if any of them win.
Ragan? Really?? yeah, just a hunch....Comment -
What books offer those kinds of payouts…?Comment -
Just came across this post. Like the picks. I think there might be good value with the Childress guys as they usually dominate here and are racing up front at the end.Comment
