CS Nascar Racing '07 Contest

[cigar_040]

After all the fun had in the "2006 Chase for the Cup" last year, I decided it would be fun to do a mini-season/Chase race contest this year. This contest will span from February to November. There will be 15 mini-season races and the 10 Chase races. Please read the following before deciding to play.


This is to be a fun contest........so enjoy it and the race !!

Feel free to post your disgust when your driver crashes on the first lap or runs out of gas on the last lap

Mini-contests and additional bonus point opportunities may pop up from time to time.........so stay tuned

If I make a mistake on scoring or something.......please tell me, I'm only human (and from Alabama)


[SIZE=4]The prize:[/SIZE]




Five (5) - 5 cigar divided ziploc bags (but they will be full when they leave my house............)


Any donation(s) to the prize pool will be accepted but not required. They would be used for mini-contest and to add to winner's take.

Position Points Position Points Position Points
1 180 16 115 31 70
2 170 17 112 32 67
3 165 18 109 33 64

15 118 30 73

BONUS POINTS WILL BE APPLIED THE SAME - LAP LEAD, MOST LAPS LEAD, AND WINNING RACE

Basically, pick your drivers carefully and end up with the highest cumulative points total possible each week

The deadline to pick drivers for the race is one (1) hour before the green flag drops each week. I will try to post reminders around mid-week and on Saturday (Friday for night races that fall on Saturday).

[SIZE=3]The picks must be PM'd to me.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]No PM = No pick = 0 points !!![/SIZE]


I will post each player/driver pick/standings the following week.

__________________________________________________

Once the 15 race season is over, the top 12 in points will become eligible for the "Chase"

The "Chase" follows a different format:
- Only one driver may be picked each race
- A driver may be used a maximum of two (2) times during the final 10 races
During the "Chase" the point system will be the following:
Position Points
1 12
2 11
3 10
4 9
5 8
6 7
7 6
8 5
9 4
10 3
11 2
12 1

IF YOUR DRIVER DOES THE FOLLOWING, BONUS POINTS ARE:
QUALIFY ON POLE 1.0PTS
LAP LEAD 1.5 PTS
MOST LAPS LEAD 3.0 PTS
WIN RACE 5.0 POINTS


**** WHEN WE APPROACH THE END OF THE MINI-SEASON, I WILL START TO GET THE CHASE FORMAT SET UP AND FINALIZED ****


__________________________________________________ ___________

STILL INTERESTED...................DOES THE ABOVE MAKE SENSE ?????

I will try and limit this to a 30 person field. So first come, first serve..................

If you have any questions, please contact me and I'll try to answer it.
