Bathurst Betting
Hi guys I like to bet on the Bathurst top 10 and no sites seem to have that option have you found anyone offering top 10 and qualifying odds.

There's usually a TAB truck at the circuit if you're going up.
Not sure what online agencies you've tried, but in the past TAB and CentreBet have both had odds. They may not publish them until later in the week though. |

Sportingbet also offers win / top 3 / top 6 / top 10... I know he's unlikely to win but Moffat is $301!

low and behold Adcafe have sent me a sponsored link to a betting option, with a relationship with Ladbrokes.
Always found that name ironic... |

I'd be considering laying a lazy 20 on one of the Mercs to get in the top 5. I reckon they'd be a good shot for it if they can hold together. |

Of course if you were naming it truthfully, ****yourmoneyupthewall and Youknowyoucantwin would be the front-runners.
A guy I worked with once told me a story of the stupidest thing his betting agency ever did. He thought he was an ok gambler. Thought he was probably 'just ahead or breaking even'. He had an online betting account and one day the agency added a feature which allowed him to view every bet he'd ever made with them. He decided to do the math. He never told me how much he'd lost over the years, but he closed the account immediately and other than the odd flutter on Melbourne Cup and the sort he refused to ever bet again. It wasn't the money, so much as the fear that he had deluded himself so much on his gambling. Sorry to go slightly off-topic. Just thought it was an interesting story. |

Not having bet on Bathurst since 1986 (when I won $5 on a net with a classmate that Dick Johnson would finish ahead of Peter Brock) it nevertheless astounds me that people would bet on a sporting event in which the results can be legitimately manipulated by the participants in the form of team orders.
Sure it is unlikely to influence the outcome, but some of us may remember the out cry when McLaren implemented team orders at the AGP in 1998. |

So D Reynolds at $21 for a podium last year was a good bet. Mostert for the podium this year is where the excitment will be |

That's a good point. Horse racing is their core business and they know everything there is to know about it. Motor racing is a little sideline to them and a lot of us on here know a lot more than they do about it, so if you hunt around, you might find very good odds on things that stand a pretty fair chance of happening.

"if your driver is leading at lap 81, and doesnt win, we will give your money back" "bet on the first driver to crash out and we will double the payout" nah, they just take your money. Prefer to have a friendly wager with a mate than give my money to these outfits. |

In simple terms you need to get back 5-10 times your investment,to cover your losses. If you put $5 on a horse and it returns $25,you can stand 5 more $5 losses before your behind. If you back a sports team for $1.50 return and you lose,you have to bet bigger and bigger to get back ahead.Sports bettings a mugs game. |

I've been betting on Formula 1 and V8 Supercars for the last two years. Nothing serious just $10 per race scattered over different bets. I keep all the results on a spread sheet and in 2012 I came out $20 ahead. So far this year I'm $80 ahead. Had some decent wins with the Nissan results at Winton and Mostert.

For qualifying the TAB has got the Red Bull cars at unbackable odds. Which shows they don't have much real knowledge as Jamie and Craig don't have good qualifying records here.
Whereas Winterbottom, who has the best qualifying record in the field, is at over double the odds of the Red Bull duo. |

Remember a few years ago when you could pair lead drivers and they would occasionally switch cars. I think BJR did it in 2002 - JB was doing well in the championship and Bradley wasn't. So odds for Brad's car were much longer, but they decided to run Bradley's number in the race. So some people got on one of the pre-race favourites with long-shot odds.
