Up to this point its been a quick learning curve for some. Since the rules tend to cause some winners to gain no poits (You can only use a driver 9 times and get points) looks like this game is some skill and mostly luck. I like games with equalizers. Means that at some point I'd have to eat sheet and pick Jr to win.......

So at some point this year Edwards is gonna sprain his leg and stop his winning streak. Or Smoke will jump off the flag stand and take Edwards with him.

Deadlines are still Thursday night before lights out....

1-Kevs Korner Krew..........863
2-MADGAV....................771
3-Maple Leaf Speed..........748
4-Symphony of Destruction...706
5-Radiator Springs Racing...703
6-Dick Trickle Racing.......681
7-Burrito Brothers..........643
8-Team TPI..................641
9-Spectator Racing..........595
10-Vetters..................591
11-TonyStewart Diet Sups....554

note: anyone have suggestions as to how to keep the columns aligned?

Yeah as far as using a driver only 9 times...I've been lucky so far. Haven't used any of the big dogs ie: gordon etc. and I'm in third.

You're right, It's gotta be luck

Since I had my azz handed to me at Vegas I should probably just keep the same team for Atlanta. Better odds for them finishing a race or not being sick.

I haven't sent the widgets yet but I will (soon). I promise. I 've just been a little distracted.

If you would like to pick new drivers for this week's race (Kobalt Tools 500), you must make your changes by Fri Mar 7 2:00am PST.

You can change your active drivers before the start of the race. The deadline for these changes is five minutes before the race starts.

I have found the race preview to be interesting but long. It also shows who must qualify or go home. Plus give reviews of who could be hot or not!

Holy crap, guess I should have read the rules. I had no idea you could only use a driver 9 times.

If he doesn't finish is that still considered a use?

I heard Carl Edwards was stripped of 10 bonus points from last Sundays race and 100 Pt's overall for not having an oil cover on. Does anyone have any idea if this affect the points in the fantasy league? Everyone ready for Atlanta? I was there in 99. Nice track!

Can someone explain to me that if Nascar feels so strongly that this was cheating by docking Edwards 100 points along with the team owner and suspending the crew chief 6 races why does he not forfiet the win and move Jr up to the winner of Vegas???

That was asked on today's telecast, and the answer was something to the effect that at the end of the race they announce a winner. They don't want fans to go home and find out there was a different winner. The penalties/fines imposed reflect how harsh the infraction was.

Seems kinda bizarre to me that that's the policy, but I guess you know every week, as long as you win, regardless of how, you can count the win?

Did anyone hear Tony Stewart ranting and raving about how bad the tires were? He said he was going to go home and have all his goodyears dismounted! This was on PRN! And I thought I could rant and rave when pissed off
