One more time! The first event is just one month away! It's time to start this thread so I don't forget the 2025 pre-season bonus event.
"The NASCAR Clash at Bowman Gray" is at the Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, NC, and will kick off the 2025 NASCAR season on Sunday, February 2, 2025. This race will run under stadium lights.
I'll post a list of eligible drivers for the 2025 Clash as soon as possible. I will also post Clash qualifying and additional information.
Like last year, game scoring for the NASCAR Clash will work like this:
• Just participate in the Busch Light Clash and pick up -2 bonus points
• Pick three drivers for the main event and list them in the order you think they will finish in the race (first driver named will either win the main event or finish closest to the winner, second driver named will finish behind the first named driver but ahead of the last named driver, last named driver will finish the main event behind your other named drivers). Pick the correct finishing order for your three choices and pick up -5 bonus points
As far as the 2025 NASCAR "Pick 'Em" game.......
We're going with the same rules as the past few years and they again will stay the same all year including bonus points.
1- Pick 2 Drivers each race! (place divided by 2)
ex. 3rd and 9th place =12/2=6----your score for race
2- Bonus pick winning driver. (-5)
ex. your score (6) -5 = 1 score with bonus
3- Bonus pick 2nd place driver. (-3)
ex. your score (6) -3 = 3 score with bonus
4- Picks must be in before the drop of the green flag for each race.
ex. the sticks with green material waving in air, if no pick avg is as if you picked the last place finisher
5- No picks for 3 straight races and you will be sent to pits for the remainder of the season.
ex. out of Competition - lost your team sponsor
6- You may make your picks permanent for the entire season so you don't run the risk of getting the dreaded last-place-pick race result by forgetting to post your weekly picks. Just let me know in your initial pick post that you want your picks to be permanent for the year. Of course, you can always make a change to your permanent picks if one, or both, of your drivers gets sick, injured or loses his ride.
Let me know who is in so I can get your names on my Excel spreadsheet. 2025 is gonna be a great year!!!
Please make your picks by driver name or car number and driver name. Driver name will always take precedence over car number.
If you make your pick by car number only you're going to be locked in to that car number no matter who the driver is; and if you pick a car number not in that weeks race, you'll end up with a last place finish as your score for that car.
..............If you have any questions just ask............
