    I would like to bet on Michael Waltrip Racing. Match me?

    I'd like to bet on the 2nd tier Toyota teams doing better than usual this week, and finishing better than any team you pick (with handicap)

    Maximum 50 points on any 1 team, and 100 points total to bet.

    The MWR, JTG and Red Bull team drivers;

    #00 Reuitimann
    #56 Truex
    #47 Ambrose
    #85 Speed
    #86 Sorrenson


    Finishing better means the BEST 3 MWR/JTG/RedBull team driver's finishing positions will add up to a lower number than the team you chose (plus handicap).


    Pick a team and the handicap you want at Even Money. (a negative handicap is an advantage to you in this case)

    Hendrick +10.5 (pick 3 of 4 drivers)
    #48 Johnson
    #24 Gordon
    #5 Martin
    #88 Dale Jr.

    Roush +8.5 (pick 3 of 4 drivers)
    #17 Kenseth
    #99 Edwards
    #16 Biffle
    #6 Ragan

    Joe Gibbs +7.5
    #11 Hamlin
    #18 Kyle B
    #20 Logano

    EGR/SHR +5.5 (pick 3 of 4 drivers)
    #1 McMurray
    #42 Montoya
    #14 Stewart
    #39 Newman

    RPM -0.5 (pick 3 of 4 drivers)
    #9 Kahne
    #43 Allmendinger
    #19 Sadler
    #98 Menard

    RCR +6.5
    #29 Harvick
    #31 Burton
    #33 Bowyer

    Penske +2.5
    #2 Kurt Bush
    #22 Kesolowksi
    #77 Sam Hornish

    Just realized you were supposed to nominate which 3.

    If you miss this, we will just go with the 3 best Roush drivers.

    Lap 190,Kenseth misses pit lane and blows a tire. Game back on. (well kind of, for now)

    Truex 2nd, Sorrenson 18th, Ambrose 24th = 44
    Edwards 7th, Biffle 22nd, Kenseth 25th +8.5 = 62.5

    Don't think that will hold for long though

    Oh Nooooo... Truex breaks an axle.

    didn't last long at all.

    Scotty Speed, Sorrenson and Ambrose will just have to do the job for me!

    If either Truex or Reutimann had avoided trouble I think I would have had you today Hawk!

    Sorrenson 16th + Ambrose 20th + Speed 32nd = 68
    Kenseth 18th + Biffle 19th + Edwards 5th + 8.5 = 50.5

    Congrats, transferring your 50 now, and thanks for the bet.

    It says "Best 3 MWR/JTG/RB drivers" and next to Roush it says "Pick 3 of 4"

    Anyway, all good. Not like I thought you might pick Ragan anyway.

    I see it. No I would not of. Still wonder why they kept him instead of McMurrray.

    Jack must love him. Or UPS. Or both. Although last year I thought he was going to step it up, for a while.

    He was always behind the winning pace in Nationwide too.
