It's almost that time of year again where the NASCAR season hits the midway point after Daytona and the Pick'Em Contest resets its groups of drivers to reflect the current points standings in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. However, I know some people are not a fan of the Mid-Season Reset, so this year I am putting it to a vote. If you are a participant in the contest, please vote on whether or not you want to see the groups reset. At the moment, I plan on making the following changes:

Demote Ryan Newman from Group A to Group B
Promote Aric Almirola from Group C to Group B
Promote Ricky Stenhouse Jr. from Group C to Group B

These suggested changes would add more drivers to the smallest group of Group B. Also, since Almirola and Stenhouse Jr. are, in most cases, automatic Group C picks for participants almost every week, it gives each participant the opportunity to choose different Group C drivers each week.

Please take a moment to vote. If you have suggestions for other changes, please let them be known and I will take them into consideration. Thank you!

I am on the fence. No other C class driver ever finishes as highly as Aric and Ricky. That will likely provide for lower score totals. This means that those in the lead currently will be at an advantage because those behind will not be able to catch up at a high rate.

I see what Nerd is saying, and agree to a point. OTOH almost everybody picks those two drivers nearly every week, so those picks kinda cancel each other out. I'm good with it either way.

I would reset the groups using the standings, in the same format they were originally set with.

Reset but I'd leave Stenhouse in group C. He really hasn't done much to justify bumping him up.

Move Almirola and Ryan. You might want to consider moving Kurt to group A-just a thought.:question: Also switch Denny and Kasey.

I would to keep kurt where he is but drop Jeff Gordon down to group b. If only to give me a reason to pick him for anything.

I voted yes, but after thinking about it, it has worked pretty good so far so if it aint broke dont fix it.

I was going to end this poll after Daytona but since it appears to be a landslide victory in favor of a group reset, that's what will happen. So after this weekends race at Daytona, the following changes to the groups will be made...

Promote Kasey Kahne from Group B to Group A
Promote Aric Almirola from Group C to Group B
Promote Ricky Stenhouse Jr. from Group C to Group B
Demote Ryan Newman from Group A to Group B

I'll remind the contestants of this in the Entry thread for New Hampshire.

Sounds good. Should make it interesting in the second half of the season.
