10/18 Sprint Cup

[ksimpsc]

Race is in Kansas this week. Tri Oval 1.5mile track but a bit more flat this week. I say it a lot but the Gibbs will be a look this week. Been doing some research tonight but will come back in the morning with some details and some picks. Logano on some h2h again and race may be a play, not sure what odds he is looking at. Hamlin is due to break out on one. He has been laying in wait since he got early berth.

[ksimpsc]

The track is a long 1.5 mile track but not the banks we saw last week, more of a flat track. This is going to be a similar race as a few weeks ago in New Hampshire. Logano is +800s to win it and is a former winner, he may have to be a play after how he ran last week. All the gibbs are pretty high except for Kenseth who is +500s

 

[ksimpsc]

I feel like this is a day to fade some Chevys. Looking at some match ups. Carl Edwards is getting no respect today

 

[ksimpsc]

Logano secured a berth into the next round with his win last week. Not sure what to think in terms of him pushing it for a win. He has been running hot and sounds like just started to bring out the good rigs.

 

[ksimpsc]

Fondy this may be the day for that Kenseth bet, he is getting a lot of love

 

[ksimpsc]

big time race today as nobody wants to be to far behind in the points going into Talladega before the next round. Everything I have heard has Kenseth selling out to try and win it today. He had car issues last week and was dominating outside of that. Logano has a berth to the next round so not sure his motivation. Harvick is someone I could see dominating again today. I feel the winner of this race will have lead a decent bit of the race towards the end just like the last few weeks.

 

[ksimpsc]

Match ups today:
Martin Truexx over Jimmie Johnson -115 1u
Martin Truexx over Kurt Busch -140 3u (moved as I hit it from -110)

Match ups today:
Martin Truexx over Jimmie Johnson -115 1u LOSER
Martin Truexx over Kurt Busch -140 3u LOSER (moved as I hit it from -110)
Denny Hamlin over Kurt Busch -115 3u WINNER
Brad Keselowski over Carl Edwards -155 3u LOSER
Brad Keselowski over Martin Truexx -115 2u WINNER
Brad Keselowski over Dale Earnhardt Jr. -230 6u WINNER
Matt Kenseth over Jimmie Johnson -145 2u LOSER
Kevin Harvick over Jimmie Johnson -160 2u LOSER

Winners:
Matt Kenseth +539 5u LOSER
Kevin Harvick +546 3u LOSER
Logano +892 1.5u WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER
Denny Hamlin +1133 1.5uLOSER

Winner with Logano, had all the boys coming into the final. Kenseth would have been a beautiful pay or if Hamlin could come in but logano is too good on restart. Will post U later but definitely up with Logano at nearly +900

If anyone watched the race that was a great damn race. Not the biggest nascar fan but that was some good shit there haha
