Daytona 500 Daredevil Longshot and Jimmie J's Return

Travis Pastrana made his name as an action sports legend and YouTube daredevil.

His next Knievel-esque trick? Racing in the Daytona 500.

Pastrana qualified via time trials on Wednesday night, alongside NASCAR legend Jimmie Johnson, who spent the last two seasons in IndyCar. He then worked out a deal with Michael Jordan's 23XI Racing and will be the team's third car on Sunday.

SportsBetting.ag has the full list of Daytona 500 odds below, and the book isn't giving Patrana much of a chance, placing him tied for second-to-worst odds at 150-1.

Johnson has much better chances, according to the odds, at 33-1.

When these odds initially opened on January 24, Ryan Blaney was the sole favorite at 10-1. Since then, Kyle Larson has overtaken him as the favorite.
