Oh yeah i have, i tried to pick another dream team like i had session #1(88th finish) out of over 100,000 enteries. ESPN cost me some starting postion, since i cant afford the drivers ya'll already had last week, but beggers cant be chosers, im just glad to have another chance. One i hope ya'll gonna regret,

Loudon Results

After the false start we are now away!

What happened WolverineFan?

Take a bow so we can pay you the 25s Fred

On that subject, just to confirm. Is it still CD, Fred, Rickie, WolverineFan and myself doing the side bets each race during this segment?

leadfootfred · 09-26-11, 11:09 AM

Lucky finish for me, looked dismal for most of the race. I had written this week off due to poor qualifying/starting positions, but I couldn't find a combination of drivers I was happy with so I stayed pat.

CarolinaDaze · 09-26-11, 02:35 PM

Congrats Fred, and yes in it 25 everyweek

rickie65 · 09-26-11, 11:13 PM

I guess the strategy of riding Gordon/Johnson/Kyle B as the basis of my dream team isn't working out too well

All my guys had risen in value but I had to swap 4 of them out anyway.

Got four Fords... any of you suckers think you can beat that?

I'm up for the extra 25 head to head again if anyone wants to take me on?

Dover Results

Onlooker wins the week and moves into the outright lead.

Very glad no one took up my offer to challenge the Ford team. :\

Rickie takes the side bet. Let us know if you would like some points for that mate?

Onlooker hangs onto the lead but allows Rickie, CD and I to make up some ground.

Charlotte Results

Another week were none of us pull out a big score. Meaning Leadfootfred's 1st, 2nd and 3rd was enough to smash the rest of us hopeless lot.

Onlooker only managed 1 driver better than 15th to plummet from first to fourth in one fell swoop! But everyone bar WolverineFan is still in it.

Say hello so we can shift you the 25s Fred

leadfootfred · 10-16-11, 04:11 PM

Looks like I was the only one without Johnson

Leadfootfred pulls out the lowest score of the week to give us all some chance to catch him. But the best we could manage was 21 points better. :\

4 races to go and it's still anyone's prize though.

I win the side bet

Optional · 10-24-11, 10:00 PM

Just to head off any potential problem re WolverineFan's entry if it comes up.

We haven't heard from him, so I assume he just forgot to put his team in and has written off his 100. But, if he feels he missed out through no fault of his own and comes back and asks for a refund I plan to give him one and eliminate 3rd place prize.

and how can i get in that 25 points pool for each week ????

Optional · 11-06-11, 09:35 PM

nah there are no points weekly for this one. Just 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes at the end. You got closer to winning one of those at least!

If you want to join in the side bet for the last two races you just have to say so. Everyone in the game is welcome.

Oh sorry BigDaddyJames. I did not realize you meant you wanted the bet when you posted your roster.

Sending you 50 now.

Sorry for misunderstanding what you were talking about when you said you won earlier too.
