Kobalt 400 @ Las Vegas

CUP YTD -1.50 units

Hit the race winner last week and still lost units, lost both prop plays and Johnson nipping Hamlin at the wire did me in.

As for Vegas:


MATCH-UPS

1.50 units Kyle Busch (+100) over Jimmie Johnson
Crossing fingers the engine issues are behind them.
Gibbs and TRD spent alot of time in California this week getting to the root of the problem. Looks like they came to the conclusion it was some of the individual parts they were buying from other suppliers that were doing them in. They de-tuned the engine to relieve some of the stress they were putting on these parts and guess what.....that 18 is still one of the fastest rockets out there (3rd in both sessions on Saturday).

I really think, much like Edwards last weeks, this bunch is determined and focused this week...you know the driver will be.


1.50 units Dale Jr. (-110) over Jeff Gordon
1.50 units Tony Stewart (-115) over Jeff Gordon
Two-fer against Gordon. Just not liking what I'm seeing and hearing from the 24 camp this week. They can easily run Top 10 but looks like they have some work to do. On the other hand I like the 88 and 14 for Top 5's today

1.50 units Carl Edwards (-125) over Matt Kenseth
Don't think Edwards will going away anytime soon, last weeks win is only the beginning

1.50 units Paul Menard (-145) over Jamie McMurray
Hate the price but if Menard is trouble free to the end I just can't see this one losing



OUTRIGHTS

1.00 unit Kyle Busch (+550)
0.50 unit Carl Edwards (+1100)
0.50 unit Kevin Harvick (+1200)
0.35 unit Dale Jr. (+1450)

Jr off to a good start in'13 and looks to be the best Hendrick car going in

Good luck!

Its not that I think Gordon will be awful, just be surprised if he challenges for the win which I think Jr and Smoke will do
