Top 2024 South Point 400 predictions
For the 2024 South Point 400, the model is high on Martin Truex Jr. at +1700 in the latest 2024 NASCAR at Las Vegas odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Truex's pursuit of a second championship ended last week after a 21st-place finish in Charlotte but he's been solid in Las Vegas of late.
He led four laps and ran seventh in the Pennzoil 400 at LVMS earlier this season and he's had 16 top-10 finishes there in 25 career Cup starts. He won the 2017 Kobalt 400 in Las Vegas and then was a winner again at the 2019 South Point 400.
And a massive shocker: Ryan Blaney (+1000) stumbles and barely cracks the top 10. There are far better values in the 2024 NASCAR Las Vegas starting lineup. Blaney ran 10th last week on the Charlotte Roval and enters the Round of 8 sitting fifth in the NASCAR standings.
However, he's winless in 16 career starts at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and hasn't led a lap in his last three starts there despite finishing 13th, sixth and third in those races. He's been outside the top 10 now in three of his last five starts at LVMS and had to finishes outside the top 30 in his last five starts this season.
