Nascar Daytona 500 Betting

February 5, 2010

Fondly known as The Great American Race, NASCAR’s biggest of the year the Daytona 500, is just around the bend. Coming Valentine’s Day, February 14 at 1:00pm EST, to the 2.5 mile (4.0 km) long Daytona International Speedway in Daytona, Florida (which also happens to be where the official NASCAR headquarters is located) the 2010 Daytona 500 will see 43 of the world’s best race car drivers vie for the most prestigious title of the NASCAR year.

This event marks the 52nd time the Daytona 500 will be run, the anxiously awaited kick off to each year’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series racing season. The site of the race

Favored to win the Daytona 500 is Kyle Busch, running currently at 7/1. Nipping at his heels, though, is Tony Stewart at 8/1, and Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt Jr., each at 9/1. Longshots are Paul Menard and Scott Speed at 100/1 each. Last year’s Daytona 500 winner was Matt Kenseth, although this year’s favorite, Kyle Busch, was leading in most of the race until Dale Earnhardt Jr. took him out in a multiple car crash toward the end of the race.

Leading up to the Daytona 500 is the Budweiser Shootout on February 6; the Gatorade Duel on February 11; and the NextEra Energy Resource 250 on February 12. All part of the Sprint Cup series, the next couple of weeks mark some of the greatest betting opportunities for NASCAR racing fans. And in July, the race car drivers in the Sprint Cup Series will return to the Daytona International Speedway for the Pepsi 400
