So, I just checked out my book for Jerry Nadeau, and lo and behold, he's not there. BUT, "Field" is listed at 30-1 against winning, 6-1 against coming in top 3.

So, a quick cross-check against my list of drivers says a field bet gets you

Jerry Nadeau
Casey Mears
Todd Bodine
Brett Bodine
Larry Foyt
Ken Schrader
Mike Skinner
Jimmy Spencer
Kenny Wallace

Nadeau by himself is probably worth the 30-1. Now, none of those other guys might stand a great chance here (some aren't even racing, like Brett Bodine, I don't think. But Skinner and Spencer and Wallace sure are), but throw them in with Nadeau, and that's a big group at pretty decent odds.

Shrimp,
Every one of those drivers will be in Atlanta. I dont know if they will all qualify for the race but they will be there.
The best bet is the 6 to 1 to finish in the top 3.
It has a lot better chance at hitting and I would take 6 to 1 every day.

Half that list has a hell of a shot at getting there. One in particular that you may not think of is Casey Mears. Teammate of Sterling and Jamie McMurray. The kid can drive and He has the ride (target). They have to get that sponsor some top finishes after Jimmy Spencer's crappy year.

Lynchburg, VA
Field at +2500 at Olympic

Drivers include:
spencer
nadeau
b. bodine
skinner
t. bodine
mears
raines
k. wallace
sprague
foyt
schrader

Think the top 2 deserve some consideration. Spencer starting 5th and had the 8th fastest time in practice. Nadeau is starting 14 and had the 9th fastest time in practice. So you get both for 25-1 odds. I may be betting this.

Spencer and Skinner both stay out of trouble and top 3 is possiable.
Nadeau is possiable 1,2 or3. He can win this. Not saying he will but those odds are nice.
