    You are the only one here with a clue about who is going to come last Yisman!

    Plus there is really only a handful to choose between. It won't work well as a tie breaker.

    We used to have a Winner and Runner Up pick each. That was pretty good. Can't recall why we changed from that.

    ok will change to that

    I would have an advantage with the last place one. I guess that's why I gravitated towards it.

    In any case, last place, runner up, cautions, time of race, all preferable to deciding based on when someone posts.

    Also, max on betting is now 80 (to win on favorites, risking 80 on underdogs). No minimum.

    Special lines for each person, as the book tries to get sharper:

    bigdaddyjames: over -130, under +110
    5mike5: over +105, under -125
    Optional: over +100, under -120
    rickie65: over +110, under -130
    rob: over -115, under -105
    CarolinaDaze: over -105, under -115

    Remains over/under 2.5 wins, of course.

    I don't like my picks now. But I am thinking that might be a good thing as using picks I like has left me as just about the only person still to a win a point in this game in either segment.

    it appears Bobby Labonte is racing in that car.

    Since it's not going to be possible to notify everyone, it'll just be the #47 vs. Paul menard (maybe I should just use car numbers in the future).

    Allmendinger was on the original list on Tuesday.
