2011 FedEx 400 benefitting Autism Speaks Breakdown – Beating the Odds: Who to Bet On

2011 FedEx 400 Betting Odds Breakdown – Who to Bet On and How to Win Money on NASCAR Betting this week: With all the upsets happening in 2011, bettors can’t help but look for the next surprise winner. However, there is nothing wrong with trying to find a few bigger names with favorable odds each week as well. The Cup Series heads to Dover this weekend, and a look at the  initial lines reveals several drivers with intriguing odds to win.

The fact that Ryan Newman is only getting 30/1 odds to win this weekend is ridiculous, but bettors should definitely take advantage. For starters, he is enjoying an excellent 2011 season. More importantly, he is a three-time winner at Dover, and his 10.3 average finish is the third-best among active drivers. Newman has 11 top-10 finishes in 18 starts at the track, and based on the numbers alone, he should be a favorite this weekend.

After his performance at Dover last fall, bettors should be running to put some money on A.J. Allmendinger. He led 143 laps and was a contender for the win until a cut tire forced him to settle for a 10th-place finish. Allmendinger has three straight top-15 finishes the track, including a pair of top-10s. He is a steal at his 75/1 odds.

Bettors will have to overlook his rough start to the 2011 season, but Jeff Burton is still worth considering at his 25/1 odds. During the past decade, he has compiled the fifth-best finishing average at Dover, and he went to Victory Lane in 2006. Last season, he finished second in both races. If Burton is going to end his slide, there is a good chance it could happen this weekend.

He is starting to hit his stride, but Denny Hamlin has never been all that great at Dover. He has a 21.4 average finish at the track for his career, and he has just four top-10s in 10 career starts. Hamlin is getting 9/1 odds to win this weekend, but those odds are more appropriate for the types of numbers he puts up at tracks other than Dover.

Although he has three top-five finishes in his last four starts at Dover, Kurt Busch is a bit of a risk at his current 16/1 odds. Team chemistry with the No. 22 bunch has been crumbling of late, and Kurt has struggled to keep his car in the top-20. He hasn’t had a top-five finish since the season opener, and Kurt and his team have some serious issues to address before he will be back in Victory Lane.
