Motorsports Free Pick : AAA Drive for Autism 400

• 14 May 2016

A great cause to race for is featured in HRWager’s Motorsorts Free Pick for May 14th.  NASCAR has the AAA Drive for Autism 400 has that Monster Mile in Dover that Jimmie Johnson really likes racing on.   Bad weather on Friday caused for an abbreviated qualifying process that saw Kevin Harvick snag the pole with Dale Earnhardt JR starting second.  Will this be enough to parlay it to victory on this Sunday the 15th?

 

Motorsports Free Pick : Longshot First

The green flag is set to wave at 1:15 PM on Fox Sports 1.  The aforementioned Jimmie Johnson is your defending champion here.  First we want to look at the drivers who grind position but not necessarily win.  Austin Dillion should be in your wheelhouse for heads up consideration here.  His team is in fine form and he should be paired with both favorable drivers and good odds.  For a real long shot, he is getting +5500 future odds.  For those with ultra secure bankrolls, a very small sprinkle on this could culminate in some serious cheddar on Sunday.

Truex Jr Coming into His Own

Last week was gut wrenching for Martin Truex Jr because he lead 172 laps then a pit mishap happened.  He went in leader and came out in mid position.  None of this was his fault but the mathematical formulas that the linesmakers used on final placement do not take this into consideration.  So his value in futures to win and heads up matchups are really undervalued.  He has won here before and is in spectacular form to finish this one out.

Good fortune for this next NASCAR event.  This is the middle part of the season where the drivers that have already won are getting bored.  The hunger for those that have not won yet gives them a competitive edge.  To utilize this advantage the best, one should invest in Martin Truex Jr.  Good fortune and we will see you on Sunday here at the HRW.
