Cookie cutter 1.5m track, I assume everyone will have around the same picks unfortunately.

W/ this new format, I could see a lot of big names getting used up quicker than last year. Greater temptation to use 5 of the ‘tier 1 guys’ each week.

I agree. It could be so much better and easier to understand. I still don't get the Garage Driver bullshite but whatever.

Pick an additional driver that you may want to use in the race but like 5 others more. You can swap out the Garage Driver at any time during the race up until the start of the 3rd Segment of the race. Worked out good for me at Daytona when Johnson wrecked and I swapped him out. The Garage driver doesn't get any points and doesn't count against times used unless you put him in the race. I kinda like it.

I've liked it so far but I won't always be able to watch or follow a race to make a change if I need to. So I'm gonna get shite on by having a good driver in my garage and wasn't able to change him out because I was doing something else. So is life

Took Bowyer off the bench during the second stage and swapped him in for Elliot.

Has anyone made any points in the bonus section? Seems like a lot of luck involved. Kinda like picking a plate race. I had Kyle Busch for the win yesterday. Been second a couple of times. Don't think I've made a point there all year so far.

I’ve actually scored a good amount of points picking a few stage winners, a few race winners, and the manufacturer. Picking the Manufacturer isn’t as hard as a plate race, generally certain guys do better @ certain tracks, same goes for the car brands. Knowing historical figures and looking @ the speed charts from practice give a pretty good idea on which manufacturer has the best chance each week.

I got lucky a bit. Looks like the majority took Harvick and Truex as their winners which would give you the 30 point bonus. I've continued to take Kyle Busch and it's finally payed off

Good job last week, kicked everyone's arse.

Now on to a coin flip week, (although I have a feeling Busch may go back to back).

Rooting for the DeBurritto this week

A few stats after 8 rounds:

There are a total of 248,277 entries in the entire Nascar Fantasy game, and the top 4 in the league are in the top 1%-4% overall, but 230+ points behind the Overall leader @ 1980 points.
