Track: Texas Motor Speedway

Betting Overview 

Texas Motor Speedway is a 1.5-mile track that will also be held at night. This track is a low-wear one, so drivers love giving it their best here. 

Looking at this speedway in Texas, three drivers have dominated. Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, and Ryan Blaney have all led at least by double digits over the last three years. 

Head to Head Matchup to Watch 

It is going to be interesting to see the matchup between Kyle Busch (186.615) and Martin Truex Jr. (187.682). Busch is coming off of a third-place finish recently at Kansas and has had excellent results here over the last three years. 

Truex Jr. is coming off of a sixth-place finish at Kansas and has solid results here as well. Comparing the two on paper, Busch slightly edges him out here.

Drivers That Could Win 

Kevin Harvick (186.911) has finished four out of the last five races in the top 10. As he is quietly earning points for the Cup Series, currently at 11th, he has another opportunity to sneak in here and take a win. With some positive momentum, he definitely has a shot. 

Christopher Bell (185.826) sits at 10th in the Cup Series and has a great opportunity to improve. His last three races have all been inside the top six. On speedways, Bell has looked just as great as anyone making an attempt to win. 

Potential Winning Pick 

Kyle Busch (186.615) is currently the third-best driver in the Cup Series rankings this season. He has been one of the more consistent drivers over the last five races. 

Busch looked great when he won the Food City Dirt race and his third-place finish at the Geico 500. He also has several other top 10 performances, as well as a third-place finish one race ago. 

Busch has the experience here to get the job done and possibly put himself in a position to move up in points. It would not hurt to throw some money his way.
