Best Bets for Xfinity |
Christopher Bell +115
There’s not a better race track than New Hampshire Motor Speedway for Christopher Bell. He’s made three Xfinity starts at Loudon and has won every single start. He has a win in the Trucks and Cup level as well. He enters this weekend as the favorite, with a 100% win rate on the line.
Chandler Smith +450
Chandler Smith dominated last weekend, leading 131 laps, but failing to come through with the win and finished 8th. He finished 2nd in last year’s race, his only Xfinity start at Loudon. Smith has nine tracks where his average finish is 8th or better, five of those are tracks 1 mile or less in length.
Justin Allgaier +700
In his 11th start at Loudon, Justin Allgaier came through for his first win at the track in 2022. Since Allgaier’s return to the Xfinity Series in 2016, he’s had one finish outside the Top 10 in seven starts at the ‘Magic Mile.’ After having his race end early last weekend at Iowa to a flat tire, Allgaier will look to avenge his 30th place finish this Saturday.
Alex Bowman +1000
Alex Bowman makes another appearnce in the Xfinity Series this weekend, his first at Loudon since 2016. He finished in the Top 10 in both starts from 2013 and 2016. He’ll have a better shot in Hendrick Motorsports equipment this time around.
Justin Bonsignore +4000
Justin Bonsignore makes his NASCAR debut for Joe Gibbs Racing this weekend. He’s known as one of the best NASCAR Modified drivers of this generation with 41 career wins. He’s won twice at New Hampshire, including last year’s race, and has finished inside the Top 10 in eleven of his last fourteen starts at the ’Magic Mile.’ Fellow Modified driver Ryan Preece finished 2nd and 3rd in his two starts with JGR at Loudon. It’s very possible he can make magic happen.
