Start of segment 2 , time to make inroads in the overall standings

In the other nascar contest there are at least 120,000 entrants, not sure about this one. But I was shocked to see that I'm tied for 15th overall in the whole contest. Not sure how the rest of the year will turn out but was a great 1st segment for me.

I felt like I played safe the last 4 weeks of the 1st segment, now that the 2nd segment is here, I want to take a few more chances when I see the opportunity.

**5mike5** · 06-09-17, 02:51 PM

DALE JR will start from the rear Sunday regardless of where he qualifies today

(engine change)

**shaunovery** · 06-10-17, 04:55 AM

Some easy choices this week , others are not

**5mike5** · 06-10-17, 05:11 AM

Outside the box choices win this week

maybe a lot of mechanical issues

**Auto Donk** · 06-10-17, 05:15 AM

all i know is that after missing a race in the first segment, which probably cost me at least third place, I'm not fukkin' around anymore.....

i'm up watching qualifying/practices I recorded yesterday right now.....

expect to see the opposite of my SBR Poker World Cup performance this segment!

**shaunovery** · 06-10-17, 05:30 AM

Segment 2

Everyone in

Apart from DDT and bigdaddyjames

Need to send before Sunday

**shaunovery** · 06-10-17, 05:30 AM

Hendrick cars no speed yesterday

**Auto Donk** · 06-10-17, 05:54 AM

on the fence with the 48, he has some upside given his starting position vs. practice position, but there may be a better option or two.... definitely a high price tag on him this week when you compare how little he did on the track yesterday.....

final practice will tell the tale

He didn't run any laps in race trim yesterday

**5mike5** · 06-10-17, 06:44 AM

Practice? We talking about practice?

Doubt we will learn too much being only a 55 min session

Pretty sure some cars further back tomorrow will pit before lap 18 and hope for a caution to stay out for track position

**5mike5** · 06-10-17, 08:25 AM

Can't wait for pocono. Strategy always so big.

**Auto Donk** · 06-10-17, 01:37 PM

i've got about as strong of a lineup as I've had all year.....

barring mechanical problems, wreck, weather, or a gas mileage race, I should have this.....

**5mike5** · 06-10-17, 01:48 PM

Strategy will win this race. Not the best car imo

**5mike5** · 06-10-17, 03:48 PM

Shaun,

how about that POWER move by Keslowski to win xfinity. That was clutch

Think what was more impressive was coming from 12th to 1st in 11 laps

Ueah that was more impressive actually

I'll take another 50 if you are game. I am due for a good run and always like my chances against Mikey5s.

ok BN 50 it is

mikey5s NASCAR strong suit isn't fantasy, so u should feel pretty good about it I agree

As a matter of fact, Mikey5s, you are eligible for the XFINITY race off as an inexperienced racer. 250 points for the pot but you can run 50 per week against me and jarehrig or just me if you prefer. This 50 can count as your entry. We are dead even so now is a good time to put you in. Both contests have problems but the two combined is a pretty solid race.

I just put in three beginners lineups on DK. How did I go from not even knowing there was a NASCAR forum and knowing the name of one driver to racing on DK in two months?

**shaunovery** · 06-11-17, 10:06 AM

Who else is playing at Dk today

Here's my main lineup

Jimmie
Harvick
Logano
Dinger
Ragan
Chase

I think I like yours a lot better than mine. What kind of contest do you choose and how do you make out?
