Falling in just supporting him with 6-1 NASCAR in Atlanta odds are Joey Logano and Kyle Busch, who finished in the top four last week at the Daytona 500.

It made some enormous calls in NASCAR this past year, including nailing wins for Kyle Busch at Chicago and Martin Truex Jr. at Sonoma. And it is off to a solid start in NASCAR this season, calling Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin a top contender from the beginning. Anybody who has followed its picks is way, way up.
McClure, who has a mechanical engineering degree, grew up around race tracks. Big events in iconic venues like Atlanta Motor Speedway are in his bloodstream. His version simulated the 2019 Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 a total of 10,000 times and the results were so surprising.
For the 2019 QuikTrip 500 in Atlanta, we could tell you the model is high on Chase Elliott, making a strong run at the checkered flag despite going off at 10-1 odds. Elliott doesn’t have a long history at Atlanta, but he’s had success there at all three of his starts at the track since linking the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. He’s finished inside the top 10 in each of those races and even earned a top-five end in 2017.
Before joining NASCAR’s top circuit, Elliott had two top-five endings at Atlanta at the NASCAR Xfinity Series. Elliott is a Georgia native and his father, Bill Elliott, won at NASCAR’s highest level at Atlanta Motor Speedway five occasions in his career, so it’s something of a house track for the 23-year-old. The model anticipates him to ride that edge to the top of the leaderboard on Sunday.
Another shocker from the model: Kyle Busch, one of the best Vegas favorites at 6-1, doesn’t crack the top five.
The 2019 Daytona 500 runner-up started on the rod in this race a year ago, but ended up finishing in seventh place. The year before, he had yet another fast ride in qualifying and started the race in third, but ended up in 16th.
Since his win at Atlanta in 2013, Busch has just conducted 56.7 percent of his laps within the top 15. For his career, he’s finished outside the top 10 in 13 of his 20 career starts at Atlanta Motor Speedway. There are far better values within this affluent 2019 QuikTrip 500 lineup compared to the 6-1 premium you’ll need to pay for him.
The version is also targeting three other drivers using 2019 NASCAR in Atlanta chances of 10-1 or longer to make a serious run at winning it all. Anyone who backs these shots could hit it big.
