For the second successive weekend, the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series will be racing at Charlotte Motor Speedwday (6:00 p.m. ET, FOX). But this time instead of an All-Star shootout, motorists ‘ are in for a grueling 600 miles in the Cup Series’ longest race of the year.
Charlotte is a 1.5-mile oblong having a comparatively old surface that has been repaved back in 2006. We saw in the All-Star race which tires did make a difference and that track position was also extremely important, so this race ought to offer a good blend of numerous 1.5-mile tracks.
The most recent 1.5-mile points-paying race was also a night race in Kansas Speedwday. In that race, the top five at average green-flag rate all showed up in the top nine at 15-lap rate in Happy Hour, despite the race being during the night and final practice during the day.
We have a similar scenario at Charlotte this weekend, so I’ll certainly rely on long-run speed in addition to 1.5-mile performance this season and beyond Charlotte oval functionality when handicapping the race.
Armed with these data points, let us get right to my favorite bets to win tonight’s race, also bonus top-five and top-10 props.

In fact, Harvick’s Crew Chief Rodney Childers stated the cars are really sensitive to track changes, and that they were really great in opening practice during the cooler temperatures.
