2015 6th Annual FABO NASCAR "Pick 'Em" Game - Here We Go Racing Again!!!

[ocdart]

How did i miss this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon and join the fun, cdr. You'll be starting off in a bit of a hole since we're a few races into the season, but you'll still be able to get your name up in lights for the weekly wins and all.
Check out the game rules back on pg. 1 and then post up a couple of drivers for Pocona. Oh yeah, don't forget to post your Pole pick before the start of qualifying tomorrow.

I also do a NHRA game if you like drag racing.
Check out that thread and post up your picks for the 4 Pro classes before the start of qualifying - also tomorrow.

 

[Budnicks]

I'll try to get him to join too & send a PM to cdr,
more FBBO members the better

Hey all, tomorrow is my Inland Mopars Car Club monthly meeting so I won't have access to a TV for the start of the race. The published 'green flag' time of 1:18PM EDT (10:18AM PDT) is the cutoff for posting your race picks or changes.
Good luck all.

Congrats to 'Budnicks' (FBBO) for being the only player to correctly pick Kurt Busch for the Pocono Pole and pick up the -1 bonus point.

 

[Budnicks]

We have a new player starting this week: cdr from FBBO. Welcome to our little house of madness! He's starting off with the score he would have had by not making any picks up to now - it's the fair thing to do.

We've all got the next weekend off since the next race is the Toyota-Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway on Sunday, June 28.
As always, your Pole picks must be posted before qualifying begins. I'll post the Qualifying time information the Tuesday before the race.

Enjoy the weekend off and Happy Father's Day!

 

[Budnicks]

Sonoma Savemart 350 way Early Picks so I don't forget
I'll take Jeff Gordon #24 for the pole {his last chance}
& my regular locked in picks too

good luck everyone

 

[cdr]

for the Save Mart race

Carl Edwards for the pole
& my lock ins for the race

 

[ocdart]

Sorry, I'm a day late from my promise of posting the Toyota-Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway qualifying time.
Qualifying TV coverage starts at 2:00PM EDT (11:00AM PDT) on Saturday, June 27, so your Qualifying Pick needs to be posted before that.
Your Race Picks need to be posted before the drop of the green flag on Sunday, June 28. TV race coverage starts at 3:00PM EDT (Noon PDT) so use that for the cutoff time.
Oh yeah, here's something different. No need to worry about rain delaying or cancelling the Sunday race - and I don't mean because of California's continuing drought conditions! If there's rain on Sunday all cars will be fitted with windshield wipers and rain tires and will race in the wet. That would sure make the race interesting!
Current Sunday weather forecast for Sonoma is 80F and partly sunny.
Good luck all!

 

[Budnicks]

Rain at Sonoma would make for some exciting racing,
possibly more wrecking than racing thou...
BUT this time of year here in mid-late June in NorCal, rain is kind of rare...
BUT we did have a relatively unseasonably wet May thou...
We are usually dry even in good/wet years thou,
albeit rains are not unheard of either, being so close to the coast...

BUT you can bet it will be warm @ the actual track & probably with wind too....

Weather report for Sonoma says Fri. 87*, Sat. 79*, Sun 82* & partially cloudy
all 3 days
But that's not @ the track, that's for town, miles away
@ the track it can be a completely different scenario...

If it does stay cool, it will be good for speeds & traction...

I actually like the idea of events/races on road courses, having to race in the rain...

Good luck everyone...

A.J. Allmendinger wins the Sonoma Pole.
No "Congratulations" to any game player and no -1 bonus point!

 

[ocdart]

Did we lose 'bobtile'? No picks last race and none so far for Sonoma...

Not sure, what's up
I've seen if he was racing in NENDRA drag racing lately, might just be busy...
