-The Two-Race Format
Recreating the WTCC races in a realistic way goes all the way to the two-race format of the real race weekends. This applies all through the game from quick race to race weekend.
The top eight finishers in the first race will switch places on the grid for the second race and the winner of the race session is the player who gathers the most combined points in the both races.

So what exactly is reverse line movement? RLM takes place when a large majority of bets are on one team, yet the line moves in the opposite direction. To illustrate, let us say that the San Diego Chargers open at -7 over the Miami Dolphins, and over 70 percent of the bets placed on the game are on San Diego. However, instead of the line rising as you might expect, it instead drops to Chargers -6. This would make Miami +6 the RLM play.
So what causes RLM when the aim of most bookmakers is to get as close to balanced action on both sides as possible? The answer to this is quite simple: the sharp bettors. You see, RLM takes place when more money is bet by the small percentage of bettors that are on the unpopular side (the sharps) than is bet by the huge majority of players betting the popular side (the squares).
Thus, following reverse line movements is the same thing a following the smart money. This is where an important word of caution is in order though. Quite a few RLM followers watch the moves until almost game time, and then bet accordingly. The huge problem with this is that the line may have moved too much by that time, and all of the value has been sucked out of the unpopular side.
The proper way to bet RLM is to place your bet as soon as there is an RLM of one full point (or 10 cents in MLB and NHL) off of the opening line. Sure, using this approach leaves open the possibility of the line turning around and moving back against you, but as you will see in bit, betting as soon as an RLM qualifies has been profitable in every major North American sport the last two seasons, so if one line turns around, so be it. Another important recommendation is to use a slow moving (but reliable) book. This may enable you to get the stale more favorable line at the time the RLM hits at the triggering Sportsbook. The records quoted below are based on the bets being made at the triggering books, so beating the move by a half-point or a few cents now and then would actually make your record even better.
Now do the sharps win every single time? Absolutely not! However, they are right more often than they are wrong, so being on the same side as the sharps is a prudent strategy over the long run, and again, the best thing is that there in absolutely no conventional handicapping necessary..
To back this up, our friends over at Sports Insights have tracked the records for games where over 60 percent of the public has been on one side, yet there was reverse line movement of at least one full point from the opening number at the top books in NFL, NCAAF, NBA and NCAAB. Furthermore, they list the RLM records for many individual sportsbook, making it easy to spot which books this system is working at and which books it may be best to ignore.
So what we recommend is to only use the top five each season for each individual sport (in terms of units won). We tracked the top five books for each of the pointspread sports for the last two years, as as you can see, this strategy has been profitable in every sport. Note that these records are for sides only and do not include totals.
The NFL is generally considered the toughest sport to beat, yet blindly following this method produced an exceptional 59.2 percent win rate last season, improving the two year record to 328-249-12, 56.8 percent, +59.06 units. Last year was a good RLM season for The Pig (45-29, 60.8 percent, +11.91), but two books that were in the top five in NFL RLM in both seasons were CRIS and ABC.
The highest two-year winning percentage using RLM from the top five books belongs to College Football, which went 480-341-10, 58.5 percent, +95.10 units. Keep an eyes on the top five books at Sports Insights though, as NCAAF has been very liquid in that regard, with only on book (believe it or not, Bodog) finishing in the top five both years.
NBA has the lowest two-year five-book RLM winning percentage among the 11/10 sports, but then again, every gambler in the world would kill to go 382-301-9, 55.9 percent, +48.90 units, and the 57.5 percent win rate this past season is nothing to sneeze at. Keep a close eye on Canbet here, as that Australian book cracked the top five both years.
College Basketball was not too shabby either, with a two-year mark of 492-356-22, 58.0 percent, +91.96 units. Keep in mind that NCAAB was the most liquid sport in terms of top-five books however, with not a single book making the top five both years. Carib ruled the roost season at 93-66-9, 58.5 percent, +18.55 units after ABC held the penthouse spot in the 2007-08 season.
Also, games where over 60 percent of the public are on one side, yet there is reverse line movement of at least 10 cents on the Money Line from the opening number at the top five books in MLB and NHL has also been profitable. It should be noted that many fewer MLB games have qualified so far this season (is the whole world using RLM now?), but smaller profits is still profit.Again, these records are for Money Lines only and do not include totals.Finally, NHL has picked up 148.49 units in two years, and unlike MLB, NHL had four sportsbooks out of the top five gain double-digit units this past season. All of this will be fun to follow (not to mention profitable) when every sport except baseball are going on simultaneously during the winter months.

Anyone know where I can purchase NCAA Football 08 and Nascar 08 for PS 2 online for a reasonable price ?
The lowest price I’ve found for NCAA 08 was 54.99 and Nascar 08 was $49.99 ! That’s a bit steep for games that I’m sure have no new innovations since all efforts are now being put into ps 3 and xbox 360 games.
Before I buy something, you know, maybe I’ll buy it retail, but it’s always worth it to check ebay, half.com, and amazon.com. Those three sites have great deals.

Heading to my first race next month and trying to figure out how to listen to the teams without having to buy a scanner
Not that I know of. As far as I know of it’s only offered on Sprint phones because the Cup series is sponsered by Sprint.
But you can rent a Fanview for $50 for the cup race or $75 for the entire weekend. And usually you can get a $10 off coupon at the track. Or you can rent some other kind of scanner for, I think about, $30.
Our 1st trip to Daytona in July 07, I rented a Fanview on Sat, had a $10 coupon & paid $40 for the night. I loved it so much that I bought one off ebay that same year around Christmas. Still have it, I use it at every track we go to for an activation fee of $10 for the entire weekend.
Just remember that you don’t have to buy. You can rent at the track.
