HOW TO BET AUTO RACING
The payoff on a winning selection varies according to the odds. In Nevada, auto racing odds are expressed by a 3-digit "MONEY LINE." Example:
Driver Odds Richard Petty 6-1 Dale Earnhardt 8-1 Darrell Waltrip 50-1 Kyle Petty 100-1 To wager on auto racing, you need to pick the winner of the race.
Typically 20-30 drivers will be listed along with a field(all others).
For example, if you wager $10 on Darrell Waltrip and he goes on to win the race, you win $50 plus your $10 back totaling $60.
