[ATP123]

good job opti! prob the sooner you get next races matchups the better for non-pros and for me as well, id like to study some of them out, maybe then ill be a tad over .500 at least thanks for the contest.

Optional, how do you determine the driver pairings?

Nice win.

-- Also, Optional.. can you throw the Phoenix thread up sometime soon for us non-pros to start transferring points? You wouldn't need to have the matchups determined yet.

Optional, how do you determine the driver pairings?

Nice win.

I usually start by having a look who usually performs well or badly at the track. And try and pick a couple of interesting matchups from them. Then I try and pick out a couple of very evenly matched ones that don't involve the same race teams I have already used. Then I look for an interesting matchup from outside the top 20 guys. (whilst trying to avoid using anyone from the previous week)

For this week, Martin/Newman/Montoya have good records. Harvick needs to bounce back from Daytona. Bowyer/Kenseth/Hamlin/Burton are the tight matches, and Labonte Gilliland deserved a nod for their big finishes last week.

If you want to suggest one or more for any week, just pipe up or pm and it shall be done.

*Edit: Just realized I used 3 RCR guys this week. Was just me rushing it. Normally would avoid doing that.
