The NASCAR Nationwide Series will go racing under the lights tonight at Kentucky Speedway in the VisitMyrtleBeach.com 300. Earlier today, NASCARWagers hit a huge 19-1 winner with Cole Custer in the Camping World Truck Series UNOH 175 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. NASCARWagers race picks have now cashed in 4 of the last 5 races and we look to continue the momentum at Kentucky Speedway later this evening. There are not any Sprint Cup drivers entered in tonight’s event but there are some heavy favorites with Chase Elliot and Sam Hornish Jr who are both listed at under 3.5 to 1. Find out which drivers are worthy enough to be included in our VisitMyrtleBeach.com 300 race picks:
Nationwide Series drivers and teams had two practices on Friday to prepare for tonight’s race. Practice results were a little bit all over the place with Chris Buescher posting the fastest lap in practice 1 and Cale Conley topping the charts in Happy Hour. There was not any cars that overly impressed throughout either session to establish their selves as one of the cars to beat. If you compare practice speeds with a few of our other handicapping tools (driver stats, track history, etc), we feel that tonight’s VisitMyrtleBeach.com 300 could be a wide open race. Therefore, we are going to approach this race with a minimal risk strategy but still try to grind out another profitable race. Take a look at our roster for tonight’s 200 lap event at Kentucky Speedway.
