thanks for the input Wayne. I don't bet NASCAR much, I am lioterally thinking a $5 bet to win 1500. The other reason I am ytolling for long shots is that I go to a Daytona party that runs a Calcutta. The real money is won by finding the guy who might sneak into the top 5 and won't have a lot of bets, instead of putting money on Stewart of Jr
2 longer shots at my books that i would take a chance on are Clint Bowyer @ +4900 & Martin Truex Jr. @ +3900

I don't know if they never changed their odds after the suspension scandal or what. Despite the switch from DEI to Tpypta, I think 300-1 to win and 70-1 for a top 3 are ridiculous odds for someone with his Daytona resume, who has 2 other teammates on the track that race for his ownership team, and managed to finish 13th in the qualifying race after no practice with a new car (all with the pressure that for the 1st 5 races, he has to qualify by speed, not past ownership points

You can't overlook the problems Toyota has had this week. If he were in a Ford, Chevy or Dodge i would say sure. Toyota ... NO!
I actually looked into Marlin (and have him on my ESPN team this week. He is consistently strong at this track and he will be cheap in the calcutta (the price of the Calcutta is based solely on the starting spot, so Marlin and Gordon will be the same price there, despite the huge odds difference

No question, hopefully everyones hatred for him will keep them from seeing the value. Not much money involved--few hundred bucks. Just an excuse for the boys to cook up something they've killed, sit around getting drunk and playing cards, get away from the wife for a few hours and then watch the last 10 laps tp see if anyone yo bet on or got in the blind draw is still in contention. Good luck to you and thanks
It's not a stupid question Greek. Alot of people like ldawg love the Top 3 wagers. I don't. I just go 3 or 4 Units each week to win. The odds on Top 3 are not worth it (imo) in a field of 43 cars. I tell anyone who has never bet Nascar to Stick With it. You can go 3 or 4 weeks w/out a winner or you can pick one right in 3 or 4 straight. In the end, you need to pick a winner about every 3/4 races to break even. Shop lines too. Nascar lines are VERY different at every book.
Wayne, i have never bet nascar- wanna tail you- do you bet all those to win, or do you pick them to finissh in the top three. Sorry if its a stupid question
I asked this question once, and the chunk that was bitten out of my head is still healing....
You know I still can't bring myself to bet Nascar. At this point, it's almost like giving in to temptation.
