The place differential looks like it is going to be big this year.
Might be good to try to pick drivers that qualify badly
OK...I think I'm in. Not sure why I got that message. Gotta figure this website out...
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW what the 5 sections were u get points mean?
how to earn the points in each of the sections to come up with out total
I thought we were just picking drivers to do well in the race. Apparently place differential counts? Does that mean if you pick the pole winner and he finishes 5th, you get -4?
This is pretty damn stupid, even for NASCAR
- Laps Led:
Total number of laps led divided by 2. Example: If Carl Edwards lead 70 laps, he would earn 35 points. NASCAR Timing & Scoring will be the official source of this statistical category.- Fastest Laps:
Total number of fastest laps divided by 2. Example: If Denny Hamlin recorded 50 fastest laps, he would earn 25 points. NASCAR Timing & Scoring will be the official source of this statistical category.- Place Differential:
Starting position (based on official qualifying order) minus finish position, +/- 1 point for each driver’s place differential. Example: If Jimmie Johnson started 7th but finished 1st, his place differential would be +6, and he would earn 6 points. If Jeff Gordon started 6th and finished 10th, his place differential would be -4, earning him -4 points.
- Finishing Position:
1st place gets 46 points, 2nd place gets 42, 3rd place gets 41, 4th place gets 40 points and so on in decrements of one point per position, with 43rd place earning 1 point. The Game will be scored based on the final Race results tabulated by NASCAR Timing and Scoring- Bonus Points - Car Manufacturer:
10-point bonus for picking the winning car manufacturer for that week. Selection DOES NOT carry over from week to week; a new pick must be made each Race.- Bonus Points - Pit Crew:
10-point bonus for picking a Top-5 pit crew (based on positions gained/lost on pit road)
had I known this, I would've just picked all the good drivers starting at the rear.
Oh damn. I should of read rules. Would of picked all strong drivers from the rear like Yisman said. Oh well.
