4 years agoChase Elliott was a +245 favorite for Sunday's race on the Austin, Texas track. If one looks at his track record on road races, one can easily see why. In 13 races, the No.9 car has taken five checkered flags, six top-fives, and eight top-ten results. It appeared like Elliott enjoyed the simulator and the 20-turn track looks like a combination of tracks that the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver would excel at. With late qualifying, it would not surprise anyone if Elliott takes the pole or comes very close. He ran first before the sprinkles came at Daytona (road) as well. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
