If you had cup guys running every single Xfinity series race I could see putting a limit but as it is, I don't really see a problem with it.

 

In 18 races so far this year, only 3 xfinity regulars have won. That's problematic for the series.

That's a good point and I didn't realize the Monster cup guys were dominating the series like that. I agree, they should do something and from what I was reading on the NASCAR website, they are going to.

Tony Stewart won titles in Indycar and NASCAR. That's the only full fledged champion in both open wheel and stock car racing I can think of.   Unless you want to consider sprint cars 'open wheel' (whi

I just can't imagine Jake Arrieta or Bryce Harper playing AAA ball on their days off just to keep their skills sharp. Or Tom Brady playing in the CFL during the NFL off season. Maybe not a direct comparison, but I bet you (generally) understand the idea.

Well, you see, the thing of it is, I'm going with Chase Elliot this week.

 

Sorry I've been behind and I didn't catch this until now, but you used Chase Elliott at Charlotte earlier this year. Unfortunately, your default pick was Erik Jones. :(

Annnnnddddd- Chris Buescher drops like a stone from 17th to 28th on the next to the last lap! Must have run out of gas. I swear, I would have done better in the last few races if my cat had made my picks, which is my new strategy! ;) ;)

Come on, folks! Let's get another entry or two.

 

Even if you miss the green flag, you can still get on with Chase Elliott as your default pick.

Is it too late to get in? :)
