NASCAR betting players don’t have to do all the travelling that some double-duty drivers will have to do this weekend, as the Camping World Truck and Nationwide Series heads to the Milwaukee Mile before the Sprint Cup holds one of only two scheduled road courses on Sunday in California.
NASCAR Odds – Oval and road-course mayhem from Milwaukee to Sonoma

- Kyle Busch will have to hold off Stewart, Gordon at Infineon
Camping World RV Sales 200 – Friday, June 19, 7:00 PM ET
You know it’s tough in NASCAR when the defending series champion can’t find sponsorship, but that’s the case for Johnny Benson, who didn’t have a ride for last week’s race at Michigan. Benson had won the last three races at Milwaukee, including last year from the pole, but this year’s sportsbook challengers for NASCAR odds figure to be Matt Crafton, who finished second to Benson in 2008, and Ron Hornaday Jr., who ran seventh.
NorthernTool.com 250 – Saturday, June 20, 6:00 PM ET
Carl Edwards is still looking for his first win of the year despite winning the pole four times, but he won’t be the online sports wagering favorite at the track where he took the checkered flag in 2008. That would be Kyle Busch at +120 in NASCAR odds, and the points leader has led the most laps in the last seven Nationwide races. He’ll have to hold off Edwards and Brad Keselowski, who won the pole here last year and led a race-high 145 laps. These two will both have sports betting odds of +350 in your offshore sportsbook.
Toyota/Save Mart 350 – Sunday, June 21, 3:30 PM ET
Again, we’ll have Kyle Busch as the sportsbook favorite at +450 at Infineon Raceway, one of only two road courses on the Sprint Cup schedule, so don’t be surprised when you see cars turning right for a change. This race shows who the best all-around drivers in NASCAR really are, which is why Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon are rated at +550, along with Juan Pablo Montoya, who won here in 2007. Busch won last year’s race, but Gordon (five) and Stewart (two) have seven wins here since 1998, while Montoya’s 3.5 finishing average in two races is the best among active drivers. Marcus Ambrose, with NASCAR odds of +1300, would be one of the best picks for bettors.
