Race: The Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway
Date: Sunday, March 6, 2011
Time: 3:14 PM EST (scheduled Green Flag)
TV: 2:30 PM EST on FOX

Starting alongside Kenseth in row 1 will be Marcos Ambrose in a Richard Petty Ford, with Roushketeers Carl Edwards and Greg Biffle in row 2. Whether this carries over to Sunday’s race remains to be seen, however.

Jimmie Johnson has won four of the last six races here including 2010, although Jeff Gordon led 219 of 267 laps in that race before finishing third. Johnson qualified 14th for Sunday’s race; Gordon, 13th.

Safe Bets

:

1. Jimmie Johnson (3/1): Johnson’s four wins at Las Vegas are twice as many as any other driver. He has the third-best average finish here among drivers with more than two starts at a 10.0; only Jeff Burton is better at a 9.9.

2. Jeff Gordon (4/1): Coming off an impressive win in Phoenix last weekend, his first in 66 races, Gordon is heading to a track that he dominated last year. Aside from a crash here in 2008, Gordon has averaged a 4.0 finish since 2005 and won this race in 2001.

Dark Horse:

1. Matt Kenseth (30/1): As noted above, Kenseth qualified on the pole for Sunday’s race; he has back-to-back wins here in 2003 and 2004. He finished 5th in this race last year.

Summary: Busch brothers Kyle and Kurt, native sons of Las Vegas, head into this race leading the NASCAR point standings. Both drivers would like to score a win on their home track this weekend, but, while Kyle qualified 5th, Kurt will be starting 22nd.

2010 Shelby American Predictions – Betting Preview + Picks + Odds

Preview: Las Vegas Motor Speedway is one of a handful of racetracks on the circuit that the NASCAR Cup Series visits just one time per year. NASCAR has been coming here since 1998, but the track was repaved in 2006 and reconfigured with the addition of progressive banking. Kurt Busch, who grew up in Las Vegas and considers this his home track, won the pole in qualifying Friday, with Jeff Gordon on the outside pole.
