Good stuff. Would there be any explanation for this?


How long have you been a NASCAR fan?

early guys are getting the course in its best condition . no spike marks , typically less wind.

i think 16-4 is a little more than i would expect , but i do think their is something to be said for playing early.

i wouldnt really call myself a nascar fan. although me and my dad went to many races at michigan speedway when i was a kid.

Some Friday golf to go with nascar

Furyk over Love 210/200
Rose over Andrade 240/200

5 dimes.

 

[WorldNumberOne]

thread up to + 2266 after fridays nascar run and completed golf wagers.

Great call on Newman to win the pole!....


And the other two as well!

How do you handicap NASCAR? Is there any type of statistical analysis to use?

thanks man... i appreciate it..

nascar for me is based on feel and previous info . i wish they left the numbers up until after the 1st practice , but they dont..

what a huge advantage that would be.

i knew newman was going to be good.. i shouldnt have put so much on vickers or kahne. sadler running second surprised me . i figured him for around 10th.

up over 2 grand is pretty good for only making $ 200 plays..

WNO:

I thought this prop at Oly was great.

3/13/2005 2:15 PM Total average speed for the race will be
167 Over 130 mph -140
168 Under 130 mph +110


any thoughts?

[jwblue]

I can't find mears over marlin at my books which of these matchups is more likely to win.


12:00 000 Casey Mears (-145)
000 Michael Waltrip (115)

13-Mar
03:00p 4012 STERLING MARLIN -115
4013 RUSTY WALLACE -115


Thanks,

IS

 

[WorldNumberOne]

i'd probably play wallace over marlin..

as far as the average speed , anybodys guess..

if you play it over , you should also play under in the cautions prop.
if you play it under , play over in the cautions prop..

Good job WNO.


Thanks

 

[WorldNumberOne]

so close to a huge week..

if furyk and na dont bogey 18 today i win 1 and push 1 instead of losing 1 and pushing 1.

both nascar matchups were easy

+ 2466 overall after 3 weeks . ( golf 13-9 ) ( nascar 7-1 + pole winner )

+ 1114 for the week.

 

[jwblue]

Great thread WNO,

I cashed on the Wallace over Marlin matchup as well.
