Congratulations to 'Budnicks' (FBBO) and 'stroked340' (FABO) for sharing the 2024 25th annual Ford Performance NHRA Nationals Top Qualifier title with outstanding totals of 30.5 bonus points each. They each picked the #1 qualifier in Funny Car, Pro Stock, and Pro Stock Motorcycle, and the #4 qualifier in Top Fuel.
'64BEL' (FBBO), 'memike' (FABO) and 'TT5.9mag' (FABO) shared the runner-up qualifier with 29.0 bonus points each.
Way to go!
More outstanding picks!
16 players again this week and 12 different driver combos made up of:
* 4 different Top Fuel drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups. There is a possibility of one head-to-head matchup is the second round of eliminations if both drivers survive until then.
* 4 different Funny Car drivers with one Round 1 head-to-head matchup between the #1 qualifier (12 picks) and the #16 qualifier (1 pick). There next possibility of a head-to-head matchup is the semi-final round of eliminations if both of the drivers survive until then.
* 3 different Pro Stock drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups. The earliest possibility of a head-to-head matchup is in the semi-final round of eliminations.
* 2 different Pro Stock Motorcycle drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchup. The only possibility of a head-to-head matchup is in the final round of eliminations if both drivers survive until then.
Good luck all!

I DVR'd it Eliminations
so I need to watch the actual race, still...
I did watch all rounds of qualifying today/from yesterday & Friday...
Some great passes after the big 1.5 hr delay, Billy Torrence rear end 'grenade' clean up
qualifying went into the evening, with mineshaft air at dusk, huge flames, fast track
should be a decent race
I'll see/watch later tonight or tomorrow early am...

Today, I was shocked they postponed the races left, got too cold
postponed it till 12
m PST
after Kalitta had an explosion in his rear end/ring gear grenade'd at like 800',
made a huge gear oil mess again in the same lane as Sat
on a pass when he was already beat by his teammate, who crossed the line blew a tire
yet another one of these guys
Billy Torrence was Sat. did it, both took hrs to clean it up too
(wonder if it's a bad batch of gears ?, I don't remember any of that prior,
not like the past 2)
S. Torrence didn't do so well either, went out too early
& Anderson lost in the finals to Stanfield
Prock Rocket won again, set another record too,
Herrara won again too (21st (?)in 2 years so far)
I had 3 in the finals & 2 of the 3 won

Congratulations to 'Budnicks' (FBBO) and 'stroked340' (FABO) for sharing the "Top Picker Eliminator" title for the 25th annual Ford Performance NHRA Nationals with outstanding totals of 165.5 points each. They each picked the class winners in Funny Car and Pro Stock Motorcycle, Their Pro Stock pick lost in the final round of eliminations and their Top Fuel pick lost in the second round of eliminations. They were each helped with ET bonus points in Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle.
'64BEL' (FBBO), 'memike' (FABO) and 'TT5.9mag' (FABO) all shared the runner-up spot with 164.0 points each.
Way to go!
Here's where the bonus points were earned if you picked the right drivers:
Top Fuel
E.T. - Brittany Force, 3.660 during qualifying
Speed - Brittany Force, 336.74 during qualifying
Funny Car
E.T. - Austin Prock, 3.817 during qualifying
Speed - Blake Alexander and Paul Lee, 333.49 during qualifying
Pro Stock
E.T. - Greg Anderson, 6.591 while losing in the final round of eliminations
Speed - Aaron Stanfield, 207.15 during qualifying
Pro Stock Motorcycle

Here are the game point standings after the 19th event of the 2024 season:
2715.0 - Budnicks (FBBO) no change in the points standings

2448.5 - alsant (FBBO) -1

Again, lots of position movement this week and the points are still close enough to make this anybody's game with only one race to go.
Now we get some time off from racing to study our picks before the final race of the 6-race "countdown". The In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip in Pomona, CA, is scheduled for November 14-17.
nhra.com currently shows the following class entry numbers:
18 - Top Fuel
18 - Funny Car
20 - Pro Stock
14 - Pro Stock Motocycle
As always, please check to verify your picks are participating before posting your picks.
GOOD LUCK!
