I like the play on Kahne. He's gonna be going for the win and nothing less.

Might have something this week, gonna wait till after practice and qualifying

 

[Looselugs]

Good to hear from you again toast! How`s that new job going?

I like my Robbie Gordon play as good as any of them.Robbie will be back in the 88 Navy car for the 2nd time this year.Last time was at Michigan where he finished 3rd and had a great chance to win it.Dale Jr had the blade down for the win.Dale won`t be in this race but guess who owns Robbies car? You guessed it Dale Jr.
It`s also his home track...hum

 

[toastonastick]

Thanks Lugs! Its going real good!

Dale jr is an interesting pick for the cup race. He had an awesome care at Michigan, cali's sister track. He's bringing same car, same set up. Should be good.

Remember adjustments will be key in this race, starting in the sunshine and ending under the lights. The 48 has always been good at keeping up with the track, and all Hendrick cars ran well at Michigan.

Vickers looks to be going for the pole..Fastest in practice with 16 laps and 42nd in average speeds.

Hamlin 2nd fastest with 14 laps, 18th average speed.

Jeff Burton turned 26 laps with 24 in race trim,maybe he is worried about the engine this week.

Biffle !! Well I have no idea what he is up to.Turned 17 laps ,32nd fastest and 35th on average speed.

Qualifying should be interesting.

 

[Looselugs]

odds after qual should be interesting.

These are the odds before qualifying at. the greek

Kurt Busch 25-1
Brian Vicker 50-1
Clint Bowyer 40-1
Scott Riggs 75-1
Martin Truex (Field 40-1)

and this is the startiing line up.....

 

[Looselugs]

One three way match up at sia

Martin Truex over Joe Nemecheck and Bill Elliott +150


Joe is my only concern,Bill has no business in this match up.

Just saw this one at carib.

Kurt Busch +140 vs Mark Martin

I am not a Nascar guy but does this look good?


Pole position vs the 38th starter in the race.

 

[Looselugs]

Oakas,
I`d have to pass on that play.Mark was just to strong in both practices yesterday.

17 in first practice after 35 laps
5th in second practice after 32 laps

Kurt was 29th in first practice after 23 laps and
12th in second practice after 19 laps.
These are average speeds.Al tho Kurt did throw one lap way off speed to bring down his average in the first practice. My 2 cents.

Adding another play

Clint Bowyer 23-1 at sia.

It's not where you start,but where you finish.
Earlier this year in this exact race.
Kurt Busch started 1 and finished 16th and the WINNER Kenseth started 31st.
By the way Mark Martin finished 9th in that race.

Going with :
Biffle 10-1
Edwards 10-1
And trying a longshot Flyin Ryan Newman(50-1).
He has been up front for a short while in recent races.Starts 12th.

Like Kahne but odds dropped to 5.5-1. Will pass.Hope he doesnt bite me.

ALSO KENSETH(-150) OVER JEFF GORDON..LARGE

 

[sharky17]

RYAN NEWMAN (+115) over SCOTT RIGGS
