YTD Totals

+02.45 units (Cup Match-Ups)
+07.60 units (N'wide Match-Ups)
- 12.04 units (Props/Outrights)

Total: -1.99 units

Basically starting over after being wiped out at Dalington last week. First time I've been in the red this season.

Not going too crazy this week because this has been a wild race in the past. No points to worry about, its all out for a cool million.

Showdown Match-Ups

2.00 David Reutimann (-155) over JJ Yeley (@thegreek)
Trust this first race alot more than I do the actual all star event. Reutimann is back in the #00 for this race and I believe this MWR team is alot better and has more momentum than Hall of Fame racing's #96. Yeley and this team seem to be a mess at this point and have to wonder how long he will last.

1.00 unit Travis Kvapil (-145) over David Gilliland (@sportsbook)
Teammates matched up here. Been playing Kvapil a good bit lately as these guys have really picked it up. Strong performance last week at Darlington, was good in practice this weekend.

1.00 unit David Ragan (-145) over Kasey Kahne (@sportsbook)
1.00 unit Brian Vickers(-130) over Kasey Kahne (@bodog)
Plays against Kahne vs. the two favorites to win the showdown.

Eating alot of juice in this first race, really need to sweep all four.

Showdown Outrights

0.25 unit Travis Kvapil (+1000) @thegreek
0.25 unit David Reutimann (16 to 1) @bodog
Not too much value on Ragan and Vickers but think these two have a shot as well, were 3rd and 4th in practice.

All-Star Match-Ups

1.00 unit Jimmie Johnson (+150) over Carl Edwards (@sportsbook)
At this price how can you not take Johnson, Lowe's has been his own personal playground for years. Finished 2nd and 1st the last two all star races.

1.00 unit Greg Biffle (-125) over Matt Kenseth (@thegreek)
1.00 unit Kevin Harvick (-145) over Matt Kenseth (@sportsbook)
Kenseth bounced back with a good finish at Darlington but this still has been a pretty rough year so far not sure everyone is on the right page yet on this Roush-Fenway team. On the other hand, just like last week, Biffle is very strong again and with some luck has a good shot at this thing. Harvick always seem to do well in this event. 1st and 2nd last two.

All-Star Outrights

0.25 unit Jimmie Johnson (+1000) @thegreek
0.25 unit Kevin Harvick (16 to 1) @bodog
0.25 unit Gerg Biffle (+1500) @thegreek

Hope to get back on track, Good luck to everyone.

I look very hard before I take favorites over -130 in Nascar.
Will probably add more just before the green flag, if the lines go my way, but here is my card as of now:

0.7 unit Biffle +1600 to win
1.0 unit Newman +100 ov MMartin

1.0 unit Kurt Busch +100 ov Kenseth

I liked your Biffle ov kenseth and would have hammered it if I had the greek. The Harvick ov Kenseth I took @ 0.5 unit when the line was -140 at 3AM today on WSEX, I was hoping to add more if the line moved in my favor but it isn't going to now. I think the value is gone @ -150. In fact I like just about everybody over Kenseth tonight but most of my books were charging too much for the favorites.

go 5-2 on match-ups, 0-fer on the outrights for a modest +2.35 units. enough to put me back on the plus side for the year. will take that as a start. i'm done with trying to pick race winners will concentrate on match-up and props from now on.
