    Results for Las Vegas

    Well don't say I didn't warn you guys!

    After taking all the totally obvious choices Optional pulls off the win for the 2nd time out of 3 races.

    Soxwin was the only one to press him for the win but ends up with second by virtue of the heartbreaker second tie-breaker rule.

    Very true Opti, you are running good in matchups, but who moved from 5th after Daytona in our group, to 1st in ESPN STOCK CAR CHALLENGE after the 3rd race. DAZE Theres over 120,000 in that one, Im around 18,000 top 85%, with a shitty 110 score week one. Congrats on another good week, Do they still think we were sand bagging last year? LOL
