For the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series Wurth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway we can tell you Bobbitt and Greco are backing Chase Elliott over Joey Logano (-135 DraftKings) in a head-to-head matchup. "This price got a little away from us, but we are still showing close to a 5 percent edge. We have Elliott projected 3.55 positions ahead in one model and 5.9 positions ahead in the other. Anyway that you slice it, Logano's speed on the 1.5-mile tracks just has not been there. Some might even go so far as to say it has been bad.

"Since the start of the 2025 season in our comparable track data, Elliott is averaging 5.5 more fast laps per race, 8.0 to 2.5, while running nearly six positions better on average. At a certain point, it turns into a Thaddeus moment from Fallout: "Hey, maybe you should hang back this time.""You sure?""Your arm fell off." That's about where we are with Logano at this track type. This is a strong position for us. We just have to pay a little bit to get it."
