Then no Pole Pick bonus this week.

22/88 for the win

 

[JB400]

Got to give Austin Dillion a big thank you if we don't go back green.


Race shortened due to rain. Points got really scrambled.

 

[ocdart]

For the second week in a row, nobody picked the race winner. I don't understand why nobody saw #77 Justin Hailey as the Coke Zero Sugar 400 race winner at Daytona! After all, he's driven the #77 twice before this year, the first time at Talladega and then again several weeks ago at Sonoma.
Nobody picked the race runner-up, #24 William Byron either.
'alsant' (FBBO) had the low-net score of the week with 17.0 points.

#22 Joey Logano was the race leader at the end of Stage 1, #17 Ricky Stenhouse Jr. was in 2nd.
#3 Austin Dillon was the race leader at the end of Stage 2, #88 Alex Bowman was in 2nd.

OC I’m changing my pics for the rest of the year to Kurt Busch and Kyle Busch. Can’t go anywhere but up from the bottom now. Martin Truex for all the polls from here on too. Thanks OC!!

For the third week in a row, nobody picked the race winner. #1 Kurt Busch swapped the lead with younger brother Kyle Busch in the #18 several times during the overtime finish of Quaker State 400 race winner at Kentucky Speedway but rode the momentum of running the high line and picked up the win.

Done

9 pole

No Pole Pick bonus for the 4th week in a row as #2 Brad Keselowski grabs the Pole at New Hampshire

 

[JB400]

Tough weekend for Bowman. Driveshaft destroyed primary car yesterday. Backed it into wall today. Using JJ's backup for tomorrow.

 

[ocdart]

'memike' (FABO) is one of our long-term NASCAR "Pick 'Em" game players. In fact, Mike has been playing this game since his son originally started the game 10 years ago.
I just found out that Mike missed posting picks for the game a few weeks ago because he had his hands full caring for his brother that has lung cancer.
Mike is one of the kindest, most respected and loyal FABO members. I'm sure you'll all admit to recognizing that he rarely moves away from his usual NASCAR game picks of #2 Brad Keselowski and #22 Joey Logano.
Because of his current family situation, I made the decision to go back to the week that he missed posting picks and plug in his usual #2/#22 picks and respective race results. I also 'locked' both of these picks in for any future weeks that Mike may miss posting picks. The results going forward after the today's New Hampshire race will reflect the correct points and game standings.
I believe this is just the right thing to do. Let me know if my decision causes any 'heartburn' for any players.​

 

[JB400]

No issue at all on my part. They seem like fair picks and with what he's going through, it's more than fair.

 

[ocdart]

Congratulations to '71dartswinger' (FABO), 'Back in Time' (FABO), 'Budnicks' (FBBO) and 'fishments67' (FABO) for picking the race winner, #4 Kevin Harvick, at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and each picking up -5 bonus points.
Nobody picked the race runner-up, #11 Denny Hamlin.
'Budnicks' (FBBO) and fishmens67' (FABO) both had the low-net score of the week with -2.5 points.

#18 Kyle Busch was the race leader at the end of Stage 1, #20 Erik Jones was in 2nd.
#10 Aric Almirola was the race leader at the end of Stage 2, #22 Joey Logano was in 2nd.
