2014 Richmond - Federated Auto Parts 400 - Pre Race Thread

Who put those odds on JR winning it all before the season? Nobody thought he'd have this type of season.

And he goes out and has a career year, and his odds go DOWN? WTF?

Did they expext him to win 10 races at this point in the year?

:wacko:
Jr Nation bets on him heavy at the start of every year so his odds are up and then tapers off as the year goes on and more and more people begin to bet on other drivers. His odds are better now at 5 1/2 to 1.
 
It doesn't help I spent Sunday and Monday at the hospital with my wife, and then work today through next Thursday because I work on political campaigns and Delaware's primary is next Tuesday.


Hoping and praying for your wife to pull through and the pain issue being corrected.
I just went through major lumbar surgery last Thursday and I never realized just how bad som pain can be. I am doing better, retired my walker and am able to be mobile with my cane. I am up to about a mile and a half walking per day now and feeling better.

I know you have a hectic schedulein your line of work, as I have a nephew that does the same work as you.
Just give her all the time you can and I am ure she will be happy for that.

Again prayers for you both and I hope your candidates win.

Can't be any worse than RFR at Charlotte this year. Different number colors were the only way to differentiate themselves.
 
It's a 7 hour train ride and $70 bucks each way for me. Train station is an hour's walk from the track. Get a hotel Friday night, take the train back late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. It's on my list of things I want to do. Its hard to justify the extra costs when I can drive to Dover or Loudon and get much cheaper tickets.
 
Welcome OzFan. This is a great site with a whole bunch of great people on it. Enjoy.

I also would like to see Ambrose win and feel that he could make the chase, very interesting.

Haven't seen the usual weather forecast post in this thread (yet) but, according to a weather site that I looked at, there's a good chance of rain at Richmond all weekend and into Monday.
