Here's your usual Tuesday before the event reminder to get your picks posted before the start of qualifying for the 30th annual AAA Texas NHRA FallNationals at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, TX. This is the third race of the six-race Countdown to the championship.
The first round of Pro Qualifying is scheduled to start at 3:45PM EDT (12:45PM PDT) on Friday, October 16.
As always, PLEASE check to make sure your driver is participating at the Carolina Nationals.
PLEASE check http://www.nhra.com/events/entrylist21.aspx for an updated entry list.
NHRA.com currently shows 19 Top Fuel, 21 Funny Car, 17 Pro Stock and 19 Pro Stock Motorcycle entries. Check my other recent posts about this event and you'll see how the entry counts are continually changing.
Remember, the "carryover" feature from the earlier events this season is no longer in effect. No event bonus points if your picks are not posted prior to the start of qualifying; and no points for the event if your picks are not posted before the start of Sunday eliminations! If you miss posting picks for two consecutive events during the Countdown, or do not have "locked in" picks, you will be dropped from the game for the remainder of the season.
Post 'em up and good luck!

Apology and Correction Notice
Back in thread Post #434, 'johnnycuda' (FABO)posted picks and a request to 'lock in' his picks for the remainder of the Countdown. I missed his 'lock in' request. Because of my error, I didn't record any points for him for the previous two events and dropped him from the game as if he hadn't made any picks for two consecutive Countdown race events.
Sorry, johnnycuda, my mistake entirely.
I've gone back and added the points for the performance of his 'locked-in' picks for the past two events.
Here are the corrected 2015 game point standings before the AAA Texas FallNationals eliminations:
2317.0 - 71dartswinger (FABO)
2301-5 - OldmanRick (FABO)
2259.0 - GPuller (FBBO)
2257.5 - IEduster (FABO)
2252.5 - alsant (FBBO)
2252.5 - Duster79 (FABO)
2239.0 - Budnicks (FBBO)
2231.5 - Back in Time (FABO)
2189.5 - ocdart (FABO)
2179.0 - memike (FABO)
2170.5 - Nick2317 (FBBO)
2162.0 - 6pk2goDemon (FABO)
2145.5 - SSG Karg (FABO)
2128.5 - cuda20 (FABO)
2115.0 - stroked340 (FABO)
2108.5 - 64BEL (FBBO)
2107.5 - 67cudafb (FABO)

I knew I should have gone with "Miss piggy" Pro-Camaro Class {at-least USA brand X}...LOL
Dale Worsham in F/C Toyota {Japanese brand}...LOL
Jerry Savoie P/SM Suzuki {Japanese brand}...LOL
Antron Brown Toyota {Japanese brand}has the T/F class all but locked up now,
even a runner up to Richie Crampton didn't hurt him
oh well, such is life, noticing a theme, BUT
I wish the old rule "Only American made mfgr.'s" was still in effect,
even if they all run Mopar Originated Design style Alum. Hemi's
{I know allot of Toyotas, sold here are made here too, sorry it's just my pet peeve}

Congrats to 'OldmanRick' (FABO) for winning the Top Qualifier title with an outstanding total of 28.5 bonus points. He picked #2 qualifier in both Funny Car and Pro Stock Motorcycle, the #3 qualifier in Top Fuel and the #4 qualifier in Pro Stock.
'memike' (FABO) and his "locked-in" picks took the runner-up spot with 27.0 bonus points.
'Gpuller' was the top FBBO qualifier with 26.5 points
Great picks!
20 active players this week and 18 different driver combos this week made up of:
* 5 different Top Fuel drivers. One Round 1 head-to-head matchup between #5 qualifier Steve Torrence (1 pick) and #12 qualifier Larry Dixon (3 picks). No possibility of any head-to-head matchup in Round 2 of eliminations.
* 4 different Funny Car drivers. No Round 1 head-to-head matchups and only one head-to-head matchup in Round 2 of eliminations.
* 4 different Pro Stock drivers picked this week. One Round 1 head-to-head matchup between #5 qualifier Greg Anderson (8 picks) and #12 qualifier Chris McGaha (1 pick) and one possibility of a 2nd Round matchup.
* 5 different Pro Stock Motorcycle riders picked with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups, but possibly two head-to-head matchups in Round 2 of eliminations.
Here are the results and point standings after the fourth race of the "countdown" following completion of the AAA Texas FallNationals at the Texas Motorplex:
Congratulations to 'memike' (FABO) for being the top picker this week with an outstanding point total of 172.0 points. His "locked-in" picks were picked the class winners in both Funny Car and Pro Stock, his Pro Stock Motorcycle went to the final round of eliminations before losing, and his Top Fuel pick went to the semi-finals before losing. His point total was helped with both Speed and E.T. bonus points in Pro Stock and E.T. bonus points in Top Fuel.
'IEduster' (FABO) and Gpuller (FBBO) were the event runners-up with almost equally outstanding totals of 171.5 points. They both picked the Pro Stock class winner, their Funny Car and Pro Stock Motorcycle picks went to the finals before losing, and their Top fuel picks went to the semi-finals before losing. They were also both helped with both E.T., and Speed bonus points in Funny Car and Pro Stock, and E.T. bonus points in Top Fuel.
Great picking all!
