NASCAR Odds & Betting Lines

NASCAR Betting Strategy

There are many betting strategies and systems you can follow, and there is no clear answer to which is the best.

Instead, you have to find one that suits you, your style of betting, and the available bankroll. Still, there are a few tips you can follow when betting on NASCAR.

BetUS is the leading NASCAR sportsbook with some of the most competitive NASCAR odds and a large selection of betting markets.

The selection of betting markets brings us to the key: betting on race winners is the simplest way to approach wagering on NASCAR.

Still, you can find a lot of value in alternative markets such as propositions.

These offer an alternative way to bet on NASCAR and can expand your options, which is always a positive thing when looking for value.

Prop Bets

The most common props in NASCAR include:

  • Finishing position (Top-3/5/10)
  • Group Betting
  • Head-to-Head
  • Teams To Play

You can bet on which driver will win a race, and you can also bet on teams or even car manufacturers.

The NASCAR betting odds you will find in this market are often very generous because there is no clear gap between the different teams.

So if you believe Kyle Larson (+450) and Chase Elliott (+900) will do well in the next race, you can bet on Hendrick Motorsports to win the race.

NASCAR Betting

NASCAR is one of the most popular motorsports in the world and is especially popular in the United States.

Just about every weekend throughout the year, there’s a race on the schedule, all leading up to the NASCAR Cup Series championship race, where the top drivers duke it out for the prestige that comes with hoisting the trophy.

And just like any sport that is popular among viewers, NASCAR races are also a big deal in the sports betting world.

While finding NASCAR Vegas odds at BetUS is easy, you should know a thing or two about how to bet on NASCAR before you place your first bet.

BetUS NASCAR Offer

BetUS is the leading provider of NASCAR odds and betting markets, with some of the most competitive prices, generous selections of bet types, and special promotions and bonuses.

On BetUS, you will be able to find odds on the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series, and even NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, providing everything a NASCAR fan would want from an online sportsbook.

Race Winner

This is the most straightforward way you can bet on NASCAR. As the name would suggest, a race winner bet is a wager on which driver you believe will win the next race, and there is nothing more to it.

The offered NASCAR betting odds on this market will be based heavily on the driver’s current form, his track record, and public perception.

The fans will often bet on more well-known or more liked drivers, which will see their NASCAR odds drop, even though their chances of winning might not be as high as the odds suggest.

Futures

Like in any other sport, future betting is a wager on a future event, and in NASCAR, it’s a bet on which driver will win the NASCAR Cup Series at the end of the season.

Even though betting on futures means you will have to tie your wager for a long time, they’re still very popular, mainly due to the generous NASCAR odds this market provides.

And you don’t have to place a future bet before the season starts either!

You can wait for a few races to go by and then decide which driver you believe will win the season but know that the future NASCAR odds will fluctuate throughout the year, depending on how drivers are performing.

Head-to-Head

Head-to-head betting is a form of prop betting in NASCAR, very similar to the same bet type you can find betting on golf.

It’s simple to understand since its name explains it all, and most importantly, the NASCAR betting odds on this market are usually very generous.

The head-to-head pits two drivers against each other, and you, as a bettor, can then decide which of the two will perform better in the next race. The driver you pick doesn’t need to win the entire race – he only needs to finish it ahead of the other driver.

Race Finish Props

You can bet on which driver will win any given race, but what if you believe that a certain driver will perform well but might not claim the checkered flag? In that case, you can bet on the driver with finish props, allowing you to predict where the driver will end the race.

Most commonly, the bookies will offer NASCAR odds on a top-3, top-5, and top-10 finish, which allow you to predict which drivers will end the next race inside the top-3, top-5, or top-10.

This bet type is usually used to bet on the underdogs, who might not be able to win, but the bettors believe are good enough to put up a fight and compete for a strong finish.

Yes, you can bet on NASCAR odds at BetUS Sportsbook. BetUS offers a variety of NASCAR betting options, including odds on race winners, driver matchups, and futures bets. Explore the available NASCAR odds on upcoming races and place your wagers on your favorite drivers.
You can find NASCAR Vegas odds on almost all online bookies, but if you’re looking for a quality offer and competitive odds, BetUS got you covered! To access the NASCAR betting odds, you simply have to navigate through the menu and open “NASCAR” and you’ll get presented with all the available markets.

NASCAR odds will often be written in American format. If you want to read American odds, the only thing you need to know is that the bigger the number (+300, +500, +700), the bigger the underdog the driver is.
For example, a driver with +300 odds is more likely to win the race than a driver who is at +700. Still, if you bet $100 on a driver at +300, you can only expect to earn $300.

Before betting on NASCAR, it’s essential to understand the race format, track conditions, and driver performance. Researching the odds and different betting options, like outright winners or top-three finishes, can give you an edge.
