NASCAR Odds this Week: Sci Aps 200 Favorites Picks, Prediction

In NASCAR, it’s tough to get to the top, with many drivers needing to get some experience at the lower levels before making it all the way to the Cup Series.

We have a good battle going on in there right now, and that will continue this weekend with the running of the Sci Aps 200 in New Hampshire, with this one set to begin at 3:30 PM EST on Saturday.

My NASCAR Xfinity Series Analysis

That is not to suggest that the Xfinity and Truck Series are easier to navigate, as we often see Cup Series drivers drop for a race or two, only to struggle against the guys that race in those other series on a permanent basis.

The goal is to make it all the way to the top to race among the best, so the push to win the Xfinity Series Championship is strong. Let’s take a look at the current top drivers.

Cole Custer

Since coming into NASCAR at a very early age, Custer has bounced between the Cup Series and Xfinity Series, and for now, you have to say that he is where he needs to be.

Custer won the championship last year after making a return to the Xfinity Series and is once again sitting atop the driver standings.

Chandler Smith

He looks set to potentially move into the #1 spot in the driver standings, as he had a great run on this track last season, finishing 2nd. A similar run here, I believe.

Austin Hill

Since making the move to the Xfinity Series from the trucks, Hill has had some success, but he has also had a hard time staying consistent throughout. Hill has made a habit of starting strong before seeing his season peter out over the course of the year.

He is following a similar pattern this season, failing to win after taking the checkered flag in each of the first 2 races. He has been good on this track, though, finishing on the podium last season and in the top 10 the year prior. I see a top 5 finish in his future.

Justin Allgaier

Over the past 5 seasons, Allgaier has been to the Championship 4 times, so he is certainly a guy that knows how to stick around and be among the leaders. He is in striking distance again in 2024, sitting in 4th overall in the driver standings.

He only has 1 win this season, but this is a track where he might well be able to improve on that total, given that he won here back in the 2022 season.
