BREAKING NEWS: This just in, CarolinaDaze will try to raise the dead again by picking Martin Truex Jr. to win his 1st race in over 6 years (200+) races.

I'm 100% joking, just wanted to get a laugh. As i look back me picking a guy who had lost 70 races in a row was crazy, i got lucky big time. Anyways i'm looking forward to this weeks picks.

Alright guys we are headed out to LAS VEGAS for the 1st 1.5mile oval of the season!!! the nationwide race will be there as well on saturday and CUP on its regular sunday...the times will both be later in the afternoon (et) than usual just like last weekend.....first 2 races have been losers, but i only lost 3 races in a row 1 time all of last season, so im not going to start this season off that way either damn it....at least both nationwide races have been wins, but that doesnt pay anywhere like cup usually does

but i have learned nothing much has changed with the car, and last week the seemed to be able to pass alright...from the start, plan from the start was to hold back and be cautious risk amounts/# of drivers picked wise but im probably going back to my normal wagering systems...1 positive is it did pay off not losing as much as usually would have on 1st 2 races...should ptobably wait til i see this firsy 1.5 of the season, but just not sure much of anything has changed...time to start raking in the cash again...thankfully from last season, the bills are already taken care of, but im ready for the big paychecks from tony to start rolling in again..lol

As always all leans/picks/information from all the regulars is always welcome and appreciated...if it wasnt for this group working together this thread would never have been the huge moneymaker it has been the last 2 nascar seasons....

ive already started watching last 4 races from Las Vegas and reading over my individual driver notebooks, and my Vegas track notebook and thats what ill be doing next few days

GOODLUCK this weekend everybody and lets cash in BIG!!!

Kick some ass Mike. We all need a winner in Vegas!

Don't be swayed mate! I back a long term loser almost every week in the #9. It WILL cash for me one day.

was a great pick.......really think about when i had Dale Jr. at Michigan race last season because its 1 of his better tracks, just like phoenix is 1 of carls better tracks...and they were actually both around 18-1 mid-range plays too....when u think about it, BOTH should have been WAY longer odds than 18-1

and i agree with opti, lonhgsots dont cost as much and when they do come in, it pays off bigtime..IF ambrose ever wins a oval race he would win way more than he bet on him no matter if he bet him every week on ovals( and he does bet him every week

)...and truex Jr. may be a decent longshot to look at this week CD i agree...he was due on the 1.5s last season remember!

i think some1 will beat last seasons BIGGEST longshot odds wise, which i think was Bowyer a few of us hit at sonoma at +3700 or something....just hope we are all on this yers biggest longshot as a group, but might be a while to beat the +1800 or whatever carl was

**shaunovery** · 03-05-13, 05:50 PM

greek has some openers very simular to last week

**JackalLion** · 03-05-13, 08:35 PM

I jumped on Jimmy and Clint right out of the gate..Didn't really see much early value so I'll wait on your thoughts Mike.

**DDT** · 03-05-13, 09:10 PM

Truex will win this year...just a matter of picking which race it will be.

Do you think he is caving in under the pressure of the 10.00am skill level?

Media seems to think drivetrain and brake issues might play a part at 1.5s until they learn the limits of new setup options they have this year. And I heard a radio show on Sirius talking about some rule that says they can't repack the driveshaft/driveplate joint mid race that is apparently making it tough for them to use all the rear end camber they want without spending a lot redesigning those components.

Which sounds like advantage to the rich teams in the short term maybe.

**JackalLion** · 03-06-13, 07:45 PM

Opti,

Do you have the NASCAR odds from the 2012 season?

**Vegas39** · 03-06-13, 07:46 PM

Seems Martin always runs a few NW races a year or maybe losing mind

Not accurate ones or for the full season.

Best I could offer you is in this thread

http://forum.sbrforum.com/nascar-betting/1900784-nascar-book-odds-comparison.html

I've got 5D odds from 2010/11, but got lazy last year keeping records of everything.

maybe both?

I wish a bookie would offer Nationwide odds just for the field of guys running for the championship in that series.

Qualifying may be iffy Friday as last I heard 70% chance of rain

A friend showed me some pictures of himself playing in snow near Las Vegas over the weekend. I wasn't sure to believe him if it was real or not?
