2016 Big Blue NASCAR Racin'

[ngauger]

HEY!!!!!!

I just noticed Daytona is Next week!!!!!

Anyone want to participate in the BBRL (Big Blue Racin League) this year???

I'll run it again, since i can find my spreadsheet now

Last year's entrants:

Lightbender 3761 --- (2015 Champion) - or best guesser.. we're not sure
Mike K 2861
Dwight77 3725
Tyson 3714
Mike K 3721
W8JY 3584
NGauger 3575
TeeJay 3473
Twist 3245
Ray M 3201
Eightyeightfan1 3095

Rules:
This is how it works:
1. Pick three drivers for your team. There is no restrictions in the drivers, so someone else can have the same drivers as you do.
2. Post your picks here. Drivers have to be locked in February 19 at 12:00 Midnight.
3. You are allowed only three driver changes during the season. Say one of your drivers breaks his legs and is out the season, or he's not performing up to expectations, you can make a change. Two drivers changed at one time during the season equals two driver changes. And if you fire all three drivers, and pick three more. You are not allowed anymore driver changes. So choose wisely.
4. Points awarded per NASCAR point system through the whole season. None of that Chase crap. Point races only.
5. Positions determined by the position your drivers finished, with the total points of all three drivers.
6 Tie breaker goes to the person who's team has the most wins. If both teams have the same amount of wins, a two headed coin will be used. If that doesn't work, both team managers will duel with pistols at 10 paces. Ok...Just kidding..We'll use a real coin.

So reply here, with your interest in 3 drivers and join in on the fun!!

Note: Tony Stewart will miss the first few races with his back injury.

Well, I am off to a great start! If I continue to do this well for the rest of the season, I may end up in negative figures!

[dwight77]

Maybe if we had some other people show interest.....we could have a restart in a race or two?????
Just an idea if more wanted to get in but forgot.

OK , I cut back to just one pool , a large one here in Ontario mainly due to my waning interest in NASCAR ........didn't realize that Big Blue would suffer such a big change this year . In order to keep it more fun I'll go in with Kenseth , Edwards and Truex , who I would have picked had I joined in the beginning .
