One of your drivers could win the race and you could still come in dead last (say, for example, if the rest of your picks crashed and didn't finish). Total points for all your picks each week determines your place that week. I've won four weeks now and I don't think that I had a driver win the race in any of those weeks. I've failed to win our pool in other weeks when I have had a driver win the race. Again, total points each week determines the winner.

Alright. Now go explain it to Lavabe who has been inhaling my exhaust fumes all season ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)



Oh shit, I wonder if I have tempted fate with that post?

Nah, the difference is that the Maple Laughs were never in first place in anything this season.

Maybe what we have to do is figure out the effect of this new spoiler BEFORE colchar goes insane and wins most of the next 12 races.

We must all step up our game. At this point last year, we had THREE people in the 93rd or above percentile. This year, we suck (well, except for colchar). L-) :Boo: ~X(

Time for Mark Martin and Smoke to dominate. :Clap: :Clap:

Smoke is disappointing me this season..... the first two races he burned me. Plus he is losing his OLD SPICE sponsorship end of the season, which makes me wonder what's going on in the garage and 'splains a little as to his below-par season so far.

My drivers are starting 3rd, 6th, 7th, and 33rd this week. All I have to accomplish is to hold my lead and I'll take the spring session.

I don't think Brian Vickers will be starting anytime soon:

2nd, 5th, 6th or 11th or 21st, 10th (but may wind up going with Kvapil).

Looks like a lot of people went with Biff as one of the two A List choices. He starts 26th or so. GO FIGURE!!

Kvapil is sitting on my bench and I am one of the people who picked Biffle but he, too, is sitting on my bench.

Biffle on my bench also, didn't pick Kvapil. Starting positions aren't great 6,10,15,17 but we'll see what the monster does to them.

Kvapil is on my bench for the third week in a row. Unfortunately, he did better than my starting choices the last two weeks, and I fear that my top C list choice, Hornish Jr, is going to DNF yet again.

UGH... 50 laps in, Hornish's right front went down, and he hit the wall, causing the first yellow.

JJ, Kyle, and KK have good cars today, as does Smoke!

Dinger had been racing in the top 3, but had a lugnut problem in a green flag pit, which dropped him off a lap or so.

Meanwhile, JJ is ruling this race. Ambrose brings out another yellow for pretty much the same thing as Hornish.

KK lost a couple of laps with a shifter problem. There's enough time for him to catch up.

So now, Ambrose has two yellows, and at a little over halfway, Hornish picks up his second yellow crash.

Idiot!

Kyle Busch, JJ, and Burton are maintaining the lead.

Well, JJ just blew it for me. With 40 laps to go, he got caught speeding out of the pits. He went from the lead to one lap down. Unless he gets the lucky dog, his day is done... and I drop about 5 places in the standings.

You can't script this stuff. :Boo:

Blech wins; Joe Gibbs racing is dominating the spoiler races.

Order of finish:
Blech, Burton, Kenseth, Hamlin, Reutimann, Biff, Harvick, Edwards, Smoke, Logano
Gordon, Truex, and Rocketman finish out the folks in the lead lap.
