Same here bro. I keep coming up just a few points short! Definitely an interesting development about Truex. Drivers and teams were really upset about some of the bullshit before and during pre race inspection! Hell, Joey Logano's car was still at the inspection area when they made the call for drivers engine start! He almost didn't make it! Unreal some of the shit Nascar makes these teams go through!

But overall you're kicking our asses.

**jackpot269** · 04-15-13, 11:29 AM

Congrats to all the winners ! Maybe I'll pick better next week!!

**yisman** · 04-15-13, 11:34 AM

Still marveling at my first week. It's why first is out of reach.

Had Candyass, Smoke, McMurray, Dale, and Harvick

zero laps led

34th, 41st, 32nd, 2nd, 42nd

so had four drivers who didn't finish in the top 30 thanks to wrecks. Maybe got some of the bad luck out of the way?

CD In for this week.. and 50 SIDE WITH YISMAN

Daytona is a crap shoot. That week should be tossed.

Dega will be just as bad . Especially if Stewart blocks

From Wikipedia:

Several pre-race favorites struggled. There were two major wrecks during the race: the first one was on lap 33, when heading into turn 1, Kyle Busch turned Kasey Kahne into the infield. As the field checked up, a total of six more cars were collected, including Tony Stewart, Kevin Harvick, Jamie McMurray, Casey Mears, Juan Pablo Montoya and Brad Keselowski.

The bolded drivers were in my lineup. What are the odds of that?

Somehow Keselowski got 4th and Mears got 29th.

Yep. Restrictor plate races, hard to set line-ups for. You just have to set and pray.

"Set and Pray" Truer words were never said!

That and hope somebody is not piss off at somebody else and decides to settle it on the track. Oh, wait a minute, that's every week!

**shaunovery** · 04-16-13, 03:48 AM

**yisman** · 04-16-13, 03:07 PM

I'll be at Kansas Speedway Thursday through Sunday. Looking forward to a great time. Looks like it's gonna be kinda cool, but at least it will be nicer than where I am now.

**rob** · 04-17-13, 05:26 PM

I'll be spending most of my time in the media center and the garage area. Also hanging out with some friends who will be camping in the infield.
Gotta get outa here first, though. Winter Storm Warning for here tonight and tomorrow.

I need to score over 200. Scoring 195 and 196 isn't enough to cash the last two weeks.

**shaunovery** · 04-18-13, 05:42 AM

certainly is tougher to cash the last few weeks

So by the trend I see a 197 this week

**yisman** · 04-18-13, 10:20 PM

197 should be good enough to win this week. Good luck.
