2024 NASCAR All-Star Race odds, picks: Best bets for North Wilkesboro from proven racing expert
CBS Sports NASCAR writer Steven Taranto reveals his NASCAR picks to SportsLine for the 2024 All-Star Race on Sunday
Kyle Larson seeks a $1 million payday for the second straight year when he competes in the 2024 NASCAR All-Star Race on Sunday at North Wilkesboro Speedway. Larson won this exhibition race - and the hefty cash prize - for the third time in his career last year, when it was the first Cup Series event held at the North Carolina track since 1996. The 2021 series champion posted his second win of the season two weeks ago at Kansas but crashed out of the race at Darlington last weekend.
Larson is 9-1 and Denny Hamlin is the 21-4 favorite in the latest 2024 NASCAR All-Star Race odds. William Byron is 25-4, Christopher Bell is 8-1 and Joey Logano is 19-2 in the 2024 NASCAR at North Wilkesboro odds. Sunday's race is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. ET. Before making any NASCAR at North Wilkesboro picks, be sure to see what CBS Sports NASCAR writer Steven Taranto has to say.
Taranto, who moonlights as a sim racer and has 20 career wins in iRacing, is the lead NASCAR writer for CBSSports.com, and he chronicles stock car racing with the same thoroughness and passion that he's had since becoming a full-time race fan in 2001. He has an annual NASCAR media credential and also publishes a popular weekly NASCAR predictions column, famously calling Ross Chastain and Daniel Suarez's breakthrough wins in 2022. Taranto is off to a red-hot start for SportsLine in 2024, nailing six winners already, including 16-1 longshot Byron at the Daytona 500 and 14-1 longshot Chase Elliott at Texas. Anybody following his NASCAR picks has seen HUGE returns!
For the 2024 NASCAR All-Star Race, we can tell you Taranto is high on Chase Elliott, who is a longshot at 10-1. Another curveball: He's fading Kyle Larson, even though he dominated the field in this event last year. "Much of Larson's advantage came from how he was able to wrap the bottom of the track and make time/maintain grip better than anyone else on North Wilkesboro's old surface," Taranto told SportsLine. "The fresh asphalt from the track's repave projects to take away much of that advantage that Larson enjoyed."
Taranto also locked in four more NASCAR All-Star Race best bets and is high on a driver who hasn't even qualified for the race yet! You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks before locking in any NASCAR picks of your own for the 2024 NASCAR All-Star Race.
