Road races often times give some very, very strange results in NASCAR betting action, and it wouldn’t get any stranger if the man who is the favorite to win this race, Marcos Ambrose (Current Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at the Glen Odds: 4.75 to 1 at 5Dimes Sportsbook) took the checkered flag. Ambrose sits in just 23rd place in the Chase for the Championship, needing to make up 19 points just to get into the Top 20 to qualify for a Wild Card spot in NASCAR’s postseason, and he has never won a race before in his career. So why is Ambrose the favorite in this one? He has three career races here at Watkins Glen. He finished in the Top 5 in all three and very well could have ended up winning all three as well.

Want a good case as to why Ambrose should be the overwhelming favorite in this one? Another man who switched over from the INDY cars to NASCAR, Juan Pablo Montoya (Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at the Glen Lines: 8.50 to 1 at 5Dimes Sportsbook) won this race last year. It remains the only race of Montoya’s Sprint Cup career in which he took the checkered flag, but don’t think for one moment that he can’t do it again. Montoya, also outside the Top 20 in 21st place, needs to win a race somewhere along the way at the end of the regular season to have a shot of getting into the playoffs as a Wild Card. He is one of the rare drivers that has run the full season that doesn’t have a DNF, and that sort of consistency can really pay off at a track like this one with so many twists and turns.

However, the man of the hour in this one very well could be another man with his postseason hopes fleeting, Tony Stewart (Odds to Win the Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at the Glen: 6.50 to 1 at 5Dimes Sportsbook). We love the price here on the No. 14 Mobil 1 machine, especially knowing just how well Stewart has run on this road course in his career. The edgy driver has five wins in the last eight years on this track, and he has an average finishing position of 5.4. On road courses, Stewart has seven wins, 11 Top 5s, and 18 Top 10s in 25 runs. Especially knowing that he is in ninth place in the Chase for the Sprint Cup and that he doesn’t have a win under his belt yet this year to get him into the playoffs should he not finish in the Top 10, we know that Stewart is going to be gunning hard to take that checkered flag.
