NASCAR just visited here on June 7th and current points leader Tony Stewart came away with the win, though Carl Edwards led the most laps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bet At Our <\/strong><a title=\"Top Nascar Sportsbooks\" href=\"\/nascar\/\" target=\"_self\"><strong>Top NASCAR Betting Sites<\/strong><\/a><strong> Today!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.betus.com\/ats\/11892\/mid\/533\/sports-betting\/nascar\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportsimagestore.com\/showbanner.asp?affid=11892&amp;banid=533\" border=\"0\" alt=\"sports-betting\/nascar\" width=\"235\" height=\"90\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Safe Bets:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. Jimmie Johnson <\/strong>(+350):  Johnson swept this track in 2004 and has four straight top-10s, as well as the best average finish among drivers with more than one start (9.6).  Johnson is also coming off a confidence-boosting win last weekend in the Brickyard at Indianapolis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Tony Stewart<\/strong> (+450):  As noted above, Stewart won here in June and also has a previous win with Joe Gibbs Racing in 2003.  He finished second in this race last year and has seven top-10 finishes in his last eight Pocono starts.<\/p>\n<h3>Dark Horse:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. Ryan Newman<\/strong> (+2000):  Newman won this race in 2003 and finished second in the June 2007 race.  This June, in his new Stewart-Haas Racing ride, Newman finished fifth.  Over the last eight Pocono races (both dates) Newman is tied with Jeff Gordon for second in total points accumulated &#8211; his teammate, Tony Stewart, is first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong>:  Tony Stewart is generally not enamored of starting a race on the pole, but Friday&#8217;s qualifying rainout puts him there, with Jimmie Johnson on the outside pole.  The last time this race was won from the pole was in June by Stewart himself.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bodog.com\/welcome\/151627\" rel=\"nofollow\">The 2009 Pennsylvania 500 at Pocono Gambling!
