NASCAR Punters Club 2011

It's Kyle's best track. Bowyer's best track. Ambrose's best oval. Junior scores a top 5 better than 1 in 3 races and has 3 wins, but has done nothing recently. It's up there for Stewart and Hamlin too. Newman has been better here for Stewart Haas than Smoke though.

Edwards/Kenseth/Biffle only have a combined 6 top 5s and 1 win from 52 starts. Although he has a few wins, Jimmie's average finish here is as bad as the Roush boys at almost 17th.

Logano pulled off a 4th last start, so maybe a JGR car to win, if the odds are ok.

Maybe too much thinking time CD

Saturday night it is Hawk.

First bet for the club;

Sprint Cup Motor Racing Crown Royal 400 - Best Finish of Group B : Clint Bowyer +360
Bowyer, Kurt Busch, Harvick, Kenseth, Stewart

Risking 9.80 To Win 35.28

Feels a bit like a H2H with Harvick at extra good odds to me.

I'm pretty happy with that early Bowyer bet, so have gone for gold with the remaining $5.20 of my bets.

I wanted to cover Kyle for a top 3, which is only +125, so this was my way of going for a bit more value. (feel free to mock me)

Good luck fellas. I like that theres not as many "to win" bets this week. I like the mix of bets and with Opti and Dew at the wheel I don't see how we won't be rolling in dough later tonight

Almost got that last parlay up... damn JJ for coming back at the end.


The good news is Bowyer came through and gave us a $45.08 payout, meaning I get to punt again next week, and our bankroll increases by $15.08 to $161.81

Target to punt again is $34 profit.

Great job.

nice job there opti

Congrats Opti, group bet was the way to go. GL with THE LADY IN BLACK next week. She can be quite wicked.

Great job Opti.

Thanks guys.

I feel good we can keep it rolling Sox!

Looking for some advice.

I am tempted to take these early odds on Hamlin and Gordon, for the $51 payout I need to punt again.

• Sprint Cup Motor Racing Showtime Southern 500 : Denny Hamlin +600
  Risking $7.45 To Win $44.70
• Sprint Cup Motor Racing Showtime Southern 500 : Jeff Gordon +775
  Risking $5.85 To Win $45.34

I don't expect either price to get much better, and both to probably come in if they qualify ok. And with the same day practice and quali system for these Saturday night races, I don't find I make a lot of good decisions based on practice times to make a better choice later anyway. Johnson is about the only other one I might be swayed to take in preference to either of these 2 based on quali performance, and he usually aint a great qualifier here.

I'd then probably look for a parlay paying about 13/1 close to race time for the remaining $3.70. (also looking for a $51 payout)

Alternatively, I could use the same strategy as last week. Look for a Group matchup bet I like and put 13 odd bucks on that to win the 51... and use the remaining few dollars for a few hopeful parlays.

I also don't mind Kahne and McMurray as smokeys at +3300 at this stage.

Any constructive thoughts appreciated.
