Weather is making selections a bit hairy with rain in the forecast. Hopefully, for all the folks who made the trek to Fontana, the race is completed in its entirety, if given the green flag today. A lot of crew chiefs believe they have top-10 machines, which should make for a competitive contest. Below is
Nascar Mogul's top-10 predictions for the
2012 Auto Club 400:
1. Kevin Harvick
2. Kyle Busch
3. Tony Stewart
4. Jimmie Johnson
5. Matt Kenseth
6. Jeff Gordon
7. Denny Hamlin
8. Clint Bowyer
9. Carl Edwards
10. Greg Biffle
Tough break for our betting selections last weekend at Bristol, as every driver we backed was caught up in a wreck not of their own making. It's a tough pill to swallow, but happens a couple of times a year. Fontana is a little less hectic, since the track is wide with plenty of racing room and we should avoid a string of DNF's. There are a lot of contenders today, and with the possibility of a rain-shortened race, our advice is to wager a tad smaller than usual, particularly in the win market.
NASCAR Mogul's selections are as follows:
Kevin Harvick to win, +1100
Kevin Harvick, top-3, +350
Kevin Harvick, under 6.5, +105
Tony Stewart, top-3, +340
Kyle Busch, top-3, +210
Ryan Newman under 10.5, +105
Martin Truex Jr #56 +105* vs Joey Logano #20
Jamie McMurray #1 -125* vs Juan Pablo Montoya #42
Jamie McMurray #1 +140* vs Joey Logano #20
