For the first time ever, the NASCAR Cup Series will run the Busch Light Clash (Feb. 6 at 6 p.m. ET, FOX), its annual preseason event, on a quarter-mile track built inside the LA Coliseum.
The Busch Light Clash will have a very unique format as well, including heat races that will ultimately decide which drivers qualify for the main event.
Since this is a very unique event, there is no data to fall back on to truly handicap which drivers should excel in the Busch Light Clash.
But still, oddsmakers at DraftKings Sportsbook have taken on the unenviable task of setting numbers and have opened Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Martin Truex Jr. and Denny Hamlin as Busch Light Clash co-favorites at +550.
Chase Elliott is next at +600, followed by Kyle Busch (+650) and Joey Logano (+700).
Interestingly, last season's NASCAR Cup Series champion and winner of 10 races, Kyle Larson, is sixth on the odds board at +750.
Below is the full list of 2022 NASCAR Busch Light Clash odds.
