The NASCAR playoffs Round of 12 will conclude with the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400 on Sunday at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course. The green flag is scheduled to drop at 2 p.m. ET. Chase Elliott is the 11-2 favorite in the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400 odds. He is followed by Tyler Reddick (6-1) and William Byron (19-2) in the 2023 NASCAR at Charlotte odds. The NASCAR playoff field will be cut to eight drivers after the race.

Our proven NASCAR projection model has simulated the race 10,000 times and came up with a surprising leaderboard. Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model takes into account a slew of factors including track history and recent results.

McClure's model is red-hot in the 2023 season, nailing Martin Truex Jr.'s Clash win (20-1) as well as his win in New Hampshire (11-2), Joey Logano's Duel win (8-1), Kyle Busch's Fontana victory (10-1), Denny Hamlin's triumph in Kansas (6-1) and Kyle Larson's wins at Martinsville (6-1) and the NASCAR All-Star Race (13-2). Then last week in Talladega, it correctly predicted Ryan Blaney to win at 12-1. It also impressively nailed five of Larson's wins during his historic season in 2021. All told, the model has nailed a whopping 14 winners since 2021! Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks saw HUGE returns.

Now, the model has dialed in on the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400 and released its projections.

The model knows that the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course is still a relatively new addition to the NASCAR schedule. In five NASCAR Cup Series races at the ROVAL, each manufacturer has managed to find its way to victory lane, with Ford and Toyota each winning once and Chevrolet winning three times. Chase Elliott is a two-time winner on the Charlotte ROVAL and has already racked up seven career victories on road courses. Last week's winner, Ryan Blaney, is also a past champion on the Charlotte ROVAL, winning the inaugural Cup race through the Charlotte Motor Speedway grounds in 2018.

For the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400, we can tell you the model is high on Denny Hamlin, even though he's a 17-1 longshot in the latest 2023 NASCAR at Charlotte odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday. And a massive shocker: The model says Michael McDowell, one of the Vegas favorites at 9-1, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top 10! There are far better values in the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400 starting lineup.

The model is also targeting two other drivers with 2023 NASCAR at Charlotte ROVAL odds of 15-1 or higher to make a serious run at the checkered flag! Anyone who backs these drivers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any NASCAR picks.

So who wins the 2023 Bank of America ROVAL 400, and which EPIC longshots are a MUST-BACK? ... Join SportsLine right now to see the full projected NASCAR at Charlotte leaderboard, all from the model that has already called the winners of eight races in 2023!
