Welcome to the 2016 season!

Our first race is the Daytona 500 on SUNDAY, February 21st!

The rules are simple. You pick 5 drivers and a spare. Please be clear on who your selection is. Remember, you are picking a driver and not a car or number. Plus, in cases like the Busch brothers, K Busch is not a clear pick. We do the best we can in determining intent, but it can be difficult.

You pick a spare in the event a regular pick does not race that week. It could be because of injury (like T Stewart at the start of this season -- GOOD LUCK TONY!) or your pick does not qualify or for whatever reason doesn't race. Also, if your intent is not clear, the spare will be used.

Scoring is simple. The place finish of your picks are added together then divided by 5.


In the event you have 4 of the 5 picks to score, you will be given a (43).

Also, there is an allowance for the All Star race, That allowance is: if you wish to participate, the All Star score will be used to either replace your worst score to that point or fill in a week you may have missed.

We also have a default thread in case you miss a week for any reason. The defaults are used up to 5 times a season.

The default thread is at:

Apologies for being off topic, but this seems to be the best place to post my question: Any suggestions for where can I watch the race at WDW? ESPN is not putting it on the big screen. I figure I could go to the lounge in any resort but I'd like to be with other race enthusiasts. Thanks in advance! - Steve

Taking a look-see....

I was looking at some of the rule changes this year. it might make the season even better!

In my original post I said a non-pick would be scored at a (43). Looks like a (40) instead.

To SteveNH: I rolled your question around my melon. That's a tough one. My first thought was maybe the bar at Trails End at Pioneer Hall in Fort Wilderness. But, still, that's pretty chancy. The other thought was at O'Hanna's at the Polynesian. There's even less seating there. Good Luck!

OK! A little better than a week to go!


Stay warm this weekend!

On a happy/sad note my nephew had to put is dog down this week. The 12
year old black lab was named TRACKER. Martin Truex Jr had the sponsor
TRACKER BOOTS right across his driver fire suit. I told my nephew that
TRACKER got 2nd place in the Dayton 500. I was rooting for Truex Jr to
win the race for TRACKER. Made me smile.
