Shop around for these props. The outright win number was mostly universal, but we only currently see the top 5 at one store. You may see a better number after tomorrow afternoon's qualifying session.
Ben Rhodes, huh? 2022 hasn't been quite the year he had hoped for. Rhodes hasn't won since Bristol dirt in the fifth race of the year. Although, he did point himself into Championship 4 by virtue of a second-place finish at Talladega and a sixth-place finish at Homestead. Rhodes is rightly the longshot to take the crown, but we're banking on a little late-season magic from this ThorSport squad.
We would like to see nothing more than another Ben Rhodes drunken press conference. It makes for fantastic entertainment. To make it a reality, he will have to find some speed.
Ben Rhode's pit crew is the third overall ranked squad this season and the best amongst the remaining playoff drivers. We're examining the previous two seasons of race data from Phoenix, Martinsville, Richmond, and Gateway. Our guy is ranked second in average starting position amongst series regulars and has the number one average running position at the 90% completion mark. This wily veteran knows how to put a tactical race together.
Ben Rhodes is also ranked first in average finish (7.3) and average running position (6.9). He leads an average of 11.9 laps per race on this track type and logs 8.4 fasties. Rhodes is as steady as they come in this series.
The playoff drivers are usually given ample room to pass, and drivers who are out of the championship fight don't get too racey. We absolutely love the Top-5 prop, and it acts as a tactical hedge to the outright win wager. It will not be surprising to see the championship-4 running 1/2/3/4 to decide this thing amongst themselves.
