Earnhardt Jr. tops in qualifying at Atlanta
Autoracing Betting Lines
03/05/2010 -
Hampton, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the pole for the Kobalt
Tools 500 with a blazing lap in Friday's qualifying at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Earnhardt Jr.'s lap of 192.761 m.p.h. set a record for the fastest qualifying
speed in the new Sprint Cup Series car -- the Car of Tomorrow. His Hendrick
Motorsports teammate, Jimmie Johnson, held the record with a lap of 192.376
m.p.h. last October at Charlotte.
"It's really fast," Earnhardt Jr. said of his qualifying lap around the 1.54-
mile track. "You just got to hang on. I think there's a lot of cars that can
run that fast, but you just got to hang on to it."
Earnhardt Jr. recorded his ninth career Cup pole, but his first since April
2008 at Texas. He also won the pole at Atlanta in November 2001.
Since his disappointing 25th-place finish in points last year, team owner Rick
Hendrick has made his priority to turn around Earnhardt Jr.'s team. NASCAR's
most popular driver has begun this season with two front starting row
positions in the first four races. He started on the outside pole at Daytona.
"I feel pretty confident with this group," Earnhardt Jr. said. "They're a lot
of fun, and we're building some pretty good relationships. The changes we have
made have given us a lot of confidence, and we can go out on the racetrack and
do some good things to help build it."
Kyle Busch will start on the outside pole after posting a lap of 192.280
m.p.h.
Juan Pablo Montoya qualified third, followed by Hendrick drivers Mark Martin
and Jeff Gordon. Martin won the pole here one year ago.
Kasey Kahne, Ryan Newman, Elliott Sadler, David Reutimann and Carl Edwards
completed the top-10.
Kurt Busch, the defending race winner, will start 11th.
Johnson was the slowest among the Hendrick cars, as he qualified 16th. The
four-time defending series champion has won the last two races -- Las Vegas
and California.
"I don't know why I was slow," Johnson said. "It was a decent lap. We were
concerned about overdriving in [turn] three, so I might have been a little bit
conservative there."
Aric Almirola, Casey Mears and Terry Cook failed to qualify.
Sunday's 500-mile race at Atlanta is scheduled to start around 1:00 p.m. (et).

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
