This is the Cup boys&#8217; second visit to the &#8220;Tricky Triangle&#8221; this year, having just raced here in mid-June.  That race was won by Jeff Gordon with Kurt Busch finishing second.    <!--more-->  <figure id=\"attachment_41740\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41740\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Good-Sam-RV-Insurance-500-e1312656211808-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"Good Sam RV Insurance 500\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"size-large wp-image-41740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Good-Sam-RV-Insurance-500-e1312656211808-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Good-Sam-RV-Insurance-500-e1312656211808-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Good-Sam-RV-Insurance-500-e1312656211808-125x125.png 125w, https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Good-Sam-RV-Insurance-500-e1312656211808.png 157w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41740\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Good Sam RV Insurance 500 Picks<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\">TIME FOR 2011 Good Sam RV Insurance 500 Gambling!

Dodge Motorsports Engineer Howard Comstock notes, <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;You have to figure fuel economy is a key.  In recent years, we&#8217;ve seen fuel economy play a big part in the strategy and the outcome of the race.<\/p>\n<p>With tires not an issue, teams stretch the run until they need fuel.  That&#8217;s when you run into trouble at this place.&#8221; <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Safe Bet: (odds of less than 10\/1)<\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 Carl Edwards (8\/1): I was originally going to pick Jeff Gordon at 5\/1 until I saw his qualifying spot (31st).  Edwards qualified fourth and has won here twice; he finished third in this race last year.  With his contract negotiations finally settled (he&#8217;s staying at Roush), Edwards can concentrate on a title run &#8211; he currently leads the Sprint Cup standings.  <\/p>\n<h3>Mid Range:  (odds between 10\/1 &#8211; 20\/1)<\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 Kurt Busch (12\/1): Busch finished second here in June and has won at Pocono twice, both times in the second race of the year (2005 and 2007).  He qualified fifth for Sunday&#8217;s race.  Though he said he&#8217;s been too tight in race trim, Busch hopes adjustments to the car after qualifying will give him a competitive edge on Sunday.<\/p>\n<h3>Long Shot:  (odds of greater than 20\/1)<\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 Ryan Newman (25\/1): Newman had the fastest car in Happy Hour Friday and qualified 12th for the race.  Ryan has one win here (2003 in a Dodge) and finished ninth back in June.  Newman won from the pole at Loudon two weeks ago and finished 12th at Indy last week.  [ad-8757089]<\/p>\n<h3>Summary:<\/h3>\n<p> In 67 races at Pocono, dating all the way back to 1974, only three have been won from a starting spot outside the top 20, with 70% of winners coming from the top 10.  <\/p>\n<p>Jeff Gordon, the winningest active driver at Pocono (five wins), won here in June but qualified 31st for Sunday&#8217;s race; Tony Stewart qualified 28th.  <\/p>\n<p>The National Weather Service forecast calls for an 80% chance of heavy rain Saturday night and a 60% chance of thunderstorms Sunday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NASCAR &#8211; Good Sam RV Insurance 500 Odds To Win <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hamlin, Denny\t3-1<br \/>\nEdwards, Carl\t6-1<br \/>\nKahne, Kasey\t7-1<br \/>\nHarvick, Kevin\t8-1<br \/>\nJohnson, Jimmie\t8-1<br \/>\nBusch, Kurt\t10-1<br \/>\nBusch, Kyle\t12-1<br \/>\nGordon, Jeff\t15-1<br \/>\nStewart, Tony\t18-1<br \/>\nLagano, Joey\t18-1<br \/>\nBiffle, Greg\t20-1<br \/>\nMartin, Mark\t20-1<br \/>\nKenseth, Matt\t25-1<br \/>\nBowyer, Clint\t30-1<br \/>\nEarnhardt Jr., Dale\t30-1<br \/>\nBurton, Jeff\t30-1<br \/>\nNewman, Ryan\t30-1<br \/>\nMenard, Paul\t40-1<br \/>\nMontoya, Juan\t50-1<br \/>\nKeselowski, Brad\t60-1<br \/>\nRagan, David\t75-1<br \/>\nMcMurray, Jamie\t80-1<br \/>\nVickers, Brian\t100-1<br \/>\nSmith, Regan\t100-1<br \/>\nAllmendinger, A.J.\t100-1<br \/>\nReutimann, David\t100-1<br \/>\nAmbrose, Marcos\t150-1<br \/>\nLabonte, Bobby\t500-1<br \/>\n<strong>Against the Field (any other driver)\t100-1<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/motorsports\/nascar\/nascar-main.aspx?page=\/data\/nascar\/this_weeks_race.html\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT OUR 2011 NASCAR DRIVER STATS &#8211; STANDINGS &#8211; ACE NFO &#8211; AND MORE!!!<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2011 Good Sam RV Insurance 500 betting preview and racing picks from motorsports gambling experts at capperspicks.com nascar betting site for the upcoming Nascar race at Pocono Raceway\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":41740,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[51293,45077,10364,10643,51294,51295,30613,14474,728,51296,14094,1188],"class_list":["post-41738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nascar","tag-2011-good-sam-rv-insurance-500","tag-2011-nascar-picks","tag-becca-gladden-articles","tag-free-nascar-predictions","tag-good-sam-rv-insurance-500-free-pick","tag-good-sam-rv-insurance-500-lines","tag-loudon","tag-nascar-gambling-online","tag-nascar-odds","tag-odds-to-win-2011-good-sam-rv-insurance-500","tag-pocono-raceway","tag-sprint-cup"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/54"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41738"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41738\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41741,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41738\/revisions\/41741"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41740"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
