How are the NASCAR Odds Today? Texas Motor Speedway welcomes NASCAR for a potentially wet weekend of racing. This intermediate superspeedway runs 1.5 miles and has developed a reputation for being one of the faster tracks that NASCAR visits.
As with many super speedways, you see a lot of pack racing – and a lot of crashes that end up bringing chaos near the end of the race.

Cup Series: Wuerth 400
Sunday, May 4, 3:30 pm ET
Last week, Austin Cindric paid off on long odds as he roared to victory at the Jack Link’s 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. He took advantage of one of those opportunities in the last lap to snag victory, edging out another long-shot, Ryan Preece, at the line, winning by 0.022 seconds.
Preece’s car and that of Joey Logano, who crossed the line in fifth, were eventually disqualified because of spoiler violations. That moved up Kyle Larson and William Byron into the official second and third place slots. With Cindric’s win, Talladega has seen 10 different winners in the last 10 races here.
Let’s look at the odds for this week’s Cup Series race.
- Kyle Larson +475
- William Byron +600
- Tyler Reddick +700
- Ryan Blaney +700
- Denny Hamlin +800
- Christopher Bell +1000
- Chase Elliott +1600
- Bubba Wallace +1600
- Joey Logano +1800
- Ty Gibbs +1800
Kyle Larson
He isn’t at his best on super speedways, but his runner-up finish a week ago is a promising time. He’s done better than that historically on super speedways. At his Texas Motor Speedway debut in 2020, he came in second, and he got to win here in 2022. He should be right there at the end again.
Denny Hamlin
Hamlin only came in 21st last week at Talladega, following up a disappointing result in the fall or 2024. He will now race for the 37th time at Texas Motor Speedway, looking for his fourth win. However, he has not taken the checkered flag here since the spring of 2019.

- Justin Allgaier +200

It’s been two weeks since NASCAR’s trucks last ran, back on Good Friday at Rockingham Speedway. Tyler Ankrum won the Black’s Tire 200 to end a 130-race winless streak. He won by an emphatic 6.657 seconds over pole-winner Jake Garcia. His last win was so long ago that it came on a track that NASCAR doesn’t even use anymore – Kentucky Speedway.
He had an accident on Lap 2 and ended up a lap down, but he got a break under caution during the Stage 2 break and then made his way to the front. Daniel Hemric, Rajah Caruth and Grant Enfinger comprised the rest of the top five.
Want some interesting dark horses here? There’s Stewart Friesen (+5500). His last Truck Series win came at Texas Motor Speedway in 2022, and in 2021 he finished third here. He came in second in Atlanta and sixth in Las Vegas, so he’s sniffing the front of the back. Kaden Honeycutt (+2400) has had top-ten average running positions at Homestead, Charlotte, and Kansas twice.
All of those are 1.5-mile tracks similar to Texas Motor Speedway. Want a really long shot? There’s Giovanni Ruggiero (+11000). He’s been fast in his rookie campaign, with top-ten finishes at Dayton, Bristol and Rockingham. He qualified in the top eight at both Las Vegas and Homestead.
