Seems like quite an unspecific statement......

Dale is a big play every week for the average joe gambler, he the most popular driver in the sport..... what kinda play on DALE?? To win?? Top 5, top 10?? H2H vs another driver???

This...

Dale Jr. is also due for an average to below average finish also. He is about my 5th favorite Chevy in the race today. He might be worth a shot at a Top 3 or Top 5 wager, but going "moderately heavy" on a +2200 outright to win is not in my thinking anyways.

Good luck and enjoy the race.

Just some gerenal NASCAR betting advice. Never go moderately heavy on anyone, unless you are doing matchup bets. Picking a straight up winner should never be more than a 1 unit bet. There are too many possible winners, variables and scenarios. One of the worst things in NASCAR betting is losing a bet because another driver did something wrong. And it happens almost every week.

With that being said... I took bowyer and Kenneth as winners today

I'm on Bowyer at +1600 as well. Best value on an outright today IMO.

Sorry for not specifying, he meant for the win. Thanks for all of your guys input.

Not sure what a moderately heavy wager is for u.... but lets say it 100.... throw 50 on him to win, and 50 for top 10... sit back, crack a beer, then another & another till the race is over....... collect cash if he wins if not enjoy your buzz.........repeat next SUNDAY...... gl

Rooster, if you are new to Nascar and don't know the teams or drivers, your best play might be betting against Danica Patrick to finish in the top 20. She's the least talented driver in Nascar. Give the start and park guys some good equipment and they would out run her. Public is still in love with Miss Nascar so on a dollar bet your odds shouldn't be that much. $100 every race and you will come out on top at the end of the season.

For what its worth...............
