Kyle Busch is about a fantastic run at this time and any odds post must start with him.

And coming right into per week with two consecutive wins and a race at a track where he has three career victories, Busch is the man to beat once more. He’s the favorite heading into the STP 500 at Martinsville Speedway, the shortest track in NASCAR.

This week includes a few intriguing storylines as Joey Logano and Martin Truex Jr. butted heads, and cars, at last year’s playoff race at Martinsville while Logano came away with the win.

Logano has seven top-10 finishes in his last 10 races at Martinsville for example that triumph last season while Truex is no slouch himself together with six top-seven finishes in his last seven efforts at the half-mile track. These men will fight it out again for the win, but they will likely be fighting Busch for the success.

Now it would be foolish to select anyone but Busch to win and that’s what we’re doing. He is outdriving everybody in NASCAR and has the best auto. He has a great opportunity this week to pass Richard Petty along with his 201st career win in NASCAR’s top three series.

The STP 500 can be viewed Sunday at 2 p.m. ET on FS1.
