Jimmie Johnson Odds to win Kobalt Tools 500: The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is in Atlanta this week for the Kobalt Tools 500 at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. The 330 lap race is set to get underway at 1:00pm ET on Sunday, March 7th on FOX; qualifying takes place tonight at 6:00pm on the SPEED Network. Odds to win Kobalt Tools 500 at Sportsbook.com have Jimmie Johnson listed as a +450 moneyline favorite to be the first to take the checkered flag. 

Defending Sprint Cup Champion Jimmie Johnson comes into Sunday's race with a great deal of momentum. Since finishing 35th at Daytona, Johnson has won back-to-back races, taking first place at the Auto Club 500 in Fontana and the Shelby American in Las Vegas.

Johnson led just 18 laps of last week's Vegas run, compared to Jeff Gordon's 219, but he was out front when it mattered most, giving him his 49th career Sprint Cup win. His stellar outing resulted in a move to fifth place in the points standings (12th going into last weekend's race), where he is just 63 points behind current leader Kevin Harvick.

Atlanta, like many of the tracks on the NASCAR circuit, has been kind to Johnson in the past. In 17 career races at the legendary speedway, the California native has recorded three wins (18 percent), nine top five (53 percent), and 11 top 10 finishes (65 percent). Last year, however, he did not perform as well in Atlanta, finishing a respectable ninth in the Kobalt Tools 500 and a distant 36th in the September Pep Boys 500 race.

NASCAR Sprint Cup - Las Vegas Odds: Two races into the newest NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season and we've had a shocker for a winner and a victory by one of the usual suspects. This Sunday the circuit continues with some wide-open racing with a stop in Las Vegas for the running of the 400-mile Shelby American at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (3 pm Eastern, Fox).

Longshot Jamie McMurray won the Daytona 500 two weeks ago, paying off at +4,000 at SBGglobal.com. Last Sunday, four-time defending series champion Jimmie Johnson held off Kevin Harvick to win the Auto Club 500 at Fontana as a post-time +150 favorite.

Harvick, who went off at +1,500 on SBGglobal.com's Auto Club 500 betting board last Sunday, finished second; Jeff Burton, at +2,500, took third; Mark Martin, a co-second favorite at +800, finished fourth; and Joey Logano, at +7,500, placed fifth.

Last year at Vegas pole-winner Kyle Busch fended off Clint Bowyer late to win the Shelby 427. Burton showed third, David Reutimann ran fourth, and Bobby Labonte took fifth.

Carl Edwards won the Vegas event in 2008, and Johnson won at Vegas three times in a row from 2005-07. Matt Kenseth won there back-to-back in 2003-04, and Jeff Gordon took checkered at Vegas in 2001.

With Johnson and Gordon in the cockpit, Chevies have won four of the last nine races at Las Vegas. And with Edwards and Kenseth, Fords have won three of those last nine Vegas events.

As of Sunday morning SBG Global has Johnson listed as the favorite to win Sunday's race at +300. He's followed by Martin, Kyle Busch and Tony Stewart at +600; Gordon and Denny Hamlin at +800; Harvick at +1,000; Edwards and Burton at +1,500; Bowyer, Kurt Busch, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., Juan Pablo Montoya and Kasey Kahne at +2,000; Greg Biffle at +2,500; Kenseth at +3,000; McMurray at +4,000; Ryan Newman and Joey Logano at +6,000; Brian Vickers at +7,500; Reutimann at +10,000; and Martin Truex Jr., David Ragan, Marcos Ambrose, Brad Keselowski, Sam Hornish, Jr. and AJ Allmendinger at +12,500. And The Field is listed at +5,000.

Shelby American Betting Odds: The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series tackles the Las Vegas Motor Speedway this afternoon for the 427 mile Shelby American. The race is scheduled to begin at 3:00pm ET on FOX. Shelby American Betting Odds at online bookmaker Sportsbook.com have defending Sprint Cup Champion Jimmie Johnson listed as a +500 moneyline favorite to win today's event. Pole winner Kurt Busch, who drives the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge for Penske Championship Racing, is currently listed at +1000 moneyline odds to be the first to take the checkered flag today.

Jimmie Johnson did not have a good season opening run at Daytona, but the California native made up for it last weekend with a dominating performance at the Auto Club 500 in Fontana. Johnson started the race in seventh and went on to finish first after leading 101 laps of the the 250 lap affair. The victory improved the four time Cup champs position on the leaderboard to 12th, where he is 78 points back of first place (Kevin Harvick).

Johnson is hoping for a better showing in Vegas this year than the one he produced last March. The 34 year old started third in last year's Shelby 427, but went on to finish an uncharacteristic 24th, despite leading 92 laps. In eight career races at the track, Johnson has typically shown well, though, producing three wins, three top five and four top 10 finishes.

Johnson will begin this afternoon's race on the 10th row (20th position) next to Kasey Kahne's No. 9 Budweiser Ford.

Also listed at +500 moneyline odds to win today's race is Las Vegas native Kyle Busch. Busch, who will start the Shelby American from the fifth position, has been solid at his home track, winning one time in six career outings at the facility to go along with three top five and four top 10 finishes. Busch won last year's Shelby 427 after taking the pole and leading 51 laps.

Other driver's viewed as strong threats to win the third race of the season include Mark Martin (+800), Jeff Gordon (+800), Kurt Busch (+1000), Tony Stewart (+1200), Kevin Harvick (+1200), and Greg Biffle (+1200). The six drivers have a combined two wins (Gordon and Martin) in 59 Sprint Cup races at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Shelby American Betting Odds: The Sprint Cup Series lands in Las Vegas this week for the Shelby American at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The race is scheduled for 3:00pm ET on Sunday, February 28th; it will be broadcast live on FOX. Qualifying is set for 6:30pm ET tonight on the SPEED Network. Shelby American Betting Odds at Sportsbook.com have Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart paired in their NASCAR Matchups. Gordon is currently listed as a -145 moneyline favorite to finsh ahead of Stewart.

Jeff Gordon finds himself in unfamiliar territory coming into this weekend's Las Vegas race, sitting 22nd in the Sprint Cup points standings. Granted, the season is just two races old, but Gordon failed to crack the top 20 at both Daytona and the Auto Club Speedway, tracks he typically performs well at.

Now the California native needs a solid outing in the desert to keep any pressure from mounting. Gordon has certainly acquitted himself well in Vegas, recording one win, five top five and six top 10 finishes in 12 career races at the track. Last year Gordon led 17 laps at the Shelby 427 and placed sixth after starting in the 28 hole.

Tony Stewart, while not as far back in the standings as Gordon, needs a good showing in Sin City as well. Stewart is presently 17th in the points standings, despite a ninth place run at the Auto Club 500 last weekend. And the Indiana native does not the same kind of track record at Vegas that Gordon does.

In 11 career outings at the track, Stewart has no wins, four top five and six top 10 finishes. Not bad numbers, but he is clearly a step behind the No. 24 car at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
