The NASCAR Cup Series turns right once again on Sunday, Aug. 10, as the series makes its annual trek to Upstate New York to take on Watkins Glen International.
Through the Gears gets you ready to place your bets for this weekend’s racing on the fastest road course on the schedule.
Shane van Gisbergen looks to retain his road course excellence, opening with +150 odds, but NASCAR Xfinity Series phenom and Trackhouse Racing teammate Connor Zilisch will look to take the fight to the Kiwi, going into the weekend with +550 odds for the outright win.
Host Wyatt Watson also reveals who bettors should keep an eye on this weekend to defy the odds against the two road course aces, who to watch for on prop bets and a slept-on driver to take a top five.
