I didn't know that the #9 was out due to a leg injury...

Thanks Shoes99!!

So, there is time to edit your picks if you have the #9...or...I can use the spare...

No bad. The slide the #22 made across the grass inflated some scoring. But! Always next week!

A visit to the raceway in Phoenix on their 1 mile track. A SUNDAY race!

Couple of house keeping items. The first, the broadcast said C Elliott had surgery on his broken leg yesterday. I suspect he will be out for a number of weeks. We should keep our eyes on what news comes out.

Second, PogoPossum did not make picks this week. When I went to the default thread, he had not posted there. I will add the link at the bottom of this thread and I will PM Pogo the url.

OK! See ya in Phoenix!
