Overall totals: If you haven't competed in at least one race per month, you are dropped until you're back in again. I think that's only fair. If anyone disagrees let me know.

Don't feel left out if I didn't post anything after your name. I won't be doing this all the time. We've got a lot of people involved here. I didn't think we'd have this much showing. It's even better than volhouse-I think!
It's time for the short track racers to do their thing at Bristol (BIS) so hope you pick some good short track drivers this week (i.e. #24, #8 and don't forget #48). Good luck!

What a horrible week.

 

[checkerboard_charly]

What a horrible week.

yeah. that idiot edwards screwed me bad.


oh well. i will dominate at bristol


plus i will be there so luck is with me.

 

[tidwell]

Yeah. Damn you Carl Edwards.

I went to Bristol last Summer a few weeks before the night race and toured the track and whatnot. That banking is 100 times steeper in real life.

:cry: I wish I was gonna be there :cry:

Seriously, have a blast, and tell Dale Jr I said hi.

 

[Volman130]

What a horrible week.

You think you had a bad week.......Edwards is on a roll this year..........rollin toward the rear of the standings.

 

[vols kick balls]

i love the bristol race track and i get to go fo free

I agree that Carl did a lot of us in. :bad: On one board, I dropped Kahne which was a bad mistake and kept Carl. It may be awile before I pick Carl again. He's got to be consistent before I pick him. Just like Dale Jr did one season-last year.
I've been by the track several times at Bristol and stopped by but have not toured the track yet. The last time I was by there, we had a 2 hour wait. Didn't have the time.

 

[TigersTalons]

This was the worst week of picks even going back to last year. :banghead: I'm not going anywhere except up in the points!!I hope :cross:

 

[USAF_Vol]

Can you imagine how I felt to see the #43 in the lead only to have the engine blow. :cry:

Hopefully he can compete at Bristol. I hear they are building him a whole new car for Talladega.

I like Bobby Labonte. I wish him well and would like to see him make some top 10's ocassionally. He just needs a run of "good luck." :thumbsup:

You are correct. I actually thought they had his car right. He had a really fast car. Enter bad luck. :no:

Hopefully things get better.

I've got you and Tidwell in my rearview mirror and you are gaining fast! I've got to to have some luck at BIS and be among the top 3 totals. Of course, playing this NASCAR pick'em and guessing who is going to finish where is a crap shoot. I do my picks mainly, based on overall performances.Every now and then there is a surprise or two.
