KenJennings Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 I added Chase Elliot's points to Cygnus' total for week 1, and I've also marked any time a participant picked a winning driver; as wins are the official points tie-breaker according to the NASCAR rules. LABT currently holds the lead by that tiebreaker. Field is tightening. This format is actually pretty fun. I'm already hoping we get a bunch of participants for next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenJennings Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 I'm impressed with Allmendinger's run with JTG this week, no trickery there, just a hard fought 2nd place finish. I think we could see big things out of that organization going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenJennings Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) Austin Dillon picked up 34 pts, in the Daytona 500, and Logano earned 32 yesterday. I should be at 172. Chase Elliott was the pole sitter in the Daytona 500, not Austin Dillon. That's 5 points, plus Joey Logano only had 31 at Martinsville. The 142 is accurate. http://www.nascar.com/en_us/sprint-cup-series/standings/results/2016/stp-500.html Edited April 5, 2016 by KenJennings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenJennings Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 "The Big One" at Texas... I'm no Jimmie Johnson fan, but what a save. That is why a driver can win six titles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenJennings Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 This won't be remembered as a particularly good race, especially considering the way the action fizzled in the last 30 laps. But I think it was a great race. The way these cars are handling is terrific. I haven't been so happy to watch NASCAR races in many years. Every week they've been putting on a decent show.

KenJennings Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Excited to see how this aero package responds at Bristol. Not even going to wait for qualifying. I'm going to go with the 31. RCR cars have been running well, Bristol has been one of Newman's better tracks in recent years. Should be a good value opportunity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
