He has posted five victories over the course of the past three seasons so you never know when it might be his week.<\/p>\n<p>The main reason for such long odds on a quality driver such as Kahne is his recent record at Dover. He has not finished better than 13<sup>th<\/sup> in his last five trips around this track.<\/p>\n<p><script src=\"http:\/\/www.bovada.lv\/livelines\/livelines.jsp?EventType=NAS&amp;ID=151627\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\">*SPRINT Cup Odds provided by Bovada (Click Here now &#8211; Open A free Nascar betting account today!)<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=65348&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASCAR 2015 Sprint Cup Futures NASCAR\u2019s Sprint Cup series will make its first trip of the season to the Monster Mile at Dover International Speedway for this season\u2019s FedEx 400 benefitting Autism Speaks.
