From the Craftsman Truck Series to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, to the Cup Series, Rod and Cody have you covered.

Today, Rod and Cody give you their 2026 Daytona 500 Betting Recap from the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. Did Denny Hamlin add another Harley J. Earl Trophy to his collection? Were we in for a top 5 run out of Corey Lajoie in RFK equipment? Could Legacy Motor put all three of their cars inside the top 5 and which will finish the highest? How many Fords were left after the mass exodus and which one was be the top runner?  Was Carson Hocevar everything Cody hoped he could be and more, or was Rod right about him all along? Which Toyota driver will had the best finish? What did you think of the race overall? We'll answer these questions and more on this week's episode.
