SONOMA, Calif. — More than $235 billion was bet on sports last year and 67.8 million people in the United States bet on Super Bowl LVIII between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs.
These are massive numbers. All of those bets, however, were placed on stick-and-ball games and matches.
How about us race fans? Maybe we don’t know enough about college basketball to place a bet on March Madness. However, given a chance to wager on who is going to win a USAC sprint car race at the Terre Haute (Ind.) Action Track or who wins heads up between Ron Capps and Matt Hagan during the Gatornationals, we’re all in.
Until recently you couldn’t bet on races legally, though, many race fans in the grandstands have enjoyed wagering among themselves on the outcome of races for years. Now that is all changing. Numerous states across America are legalizing sports gaming. Thirty-eight states and the District of Columbia now allow sports gaming.
That doesn’t mean one can automatically wager on one’s favorite motorsports genre. Each sanctioning body must be approved in each state individually, which is a slow and drawn-out process. Unfortunately, if you live in a state where sports betting has not been legalized you can’t play. Not yet anyway.
So where and how can you start gaming on racing?
NXTbets is the No. 1 site to trust for sports gaming. NXTbets is not an offshore gaming site. It is located here in the U.S. and works closely with the biggest most trusted sports books in the country such as Bet MGM, Caesar’s Sports Book, Draft Kings and more.
Those brand names give NXTbets plenty of credibility and provide instant comfort to clients who wager their hard-earned money.
By utilizing NXTbets one receives access to insider info and the latest and most up-to-the-minute details and odds that will help one decide who to place money on. The other big reason to go with NXTbets is the incentives and bonus offers to their clients that will help betters earn even more if they win.
This weekend for example, the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series is in action at California’s Sonoma Raceway. There are a multitude of possibilities as to how one can bet on the races. Heads up battles, lowest elapsed time, parlays and, of course, picking the overall winner, are some of the options in each of the four professional categories.
Placing a wager like these adds to the experience of watching the races in person and on television.
Since the transactions are executed on a mobile device, it takes all of the intimidation of being in a busy Vegas sports book out of the picture. It can be very intimidating standing in line looking up at the boards trying to understand the odds and trying to figure out the best way to play your $20.
Especially when there are seasoned gamblers standing behind one in line anxious to get their next round of bets in before the green flag or kickoff.
Unsure about how the odds work or what a parlay is? No problem, NXTbets can explain it all at nxtbets.com. They can also offer help for those who need to get their betting habits under control.
