NASCAR Predictions: Who will win the Coca-Cola 600? 5/28/17
The Coca-Cola 600 is set to take place later tonight in Charlotte. Get a look at our NASCAR Predictions for tonight’s race.
TONIGHT’S ODDS
According to oddsmakers, Kevin Harvick and Kyle Larson are now co-favorites with 5/1 odds while Martin Truex Jr. is listed with 11/2 odds to win tonight. The Coca-Cola 600 takes place today at 6PM ET from Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina.
NASCAR PREDICTIONS
KYLE BUSCH
Kyle Busch has yet to get a win at Charlotte in his career, but that is pretty surprising considering how well he has driven there. He comes into today’s race with 6/1 odds and he has a driver rating of 104.8 at Charlotte, which is second in the field. Busch is off to a somewhat slow start this year, but he has finished in the top 5 in his last two races. I think he can grab his first win of the year tonight.
JIMMIE JOHNSON
Jimmie Johnson has 8/1 odds to win tonight, which is fitting considering he is an 8-time winner at this track. He also is a four-time winner of this very event. Johnson has a driver rating of 110.6 at Charlotte, which is best of anyone in this field. The seven-time series champion has a pair of wins already this year and I think he can make it three tonight. This is clearly a track he is comfortable at and he has the patience to handle the long battle.
KASEY KAHNE
If you are looking for a real long shot, Kasey Kahne is your man. He has 45/1 odds to win tonight, but he is a three-time winner of the Coca-Cola 600. In a career that hasn’t featured a lot of high points, Charlotte has been a track of great success for Kahne. He has a driver rating of 95.1 at the track and an average finish of 12.8. A win would do wonders for Kahne, so look for him to be aggressive today.
