Let's Talk NASCAR - 2011 Season

Anybody have the finishing order or a link to it?

NM. I found it. http://www.nascar.com/races/cup/2011/14/data/results_unofficial.html

Boy did my picks suck. Why is it that I do this again?

I saw that. Not a great week for you.

I guess a 1/16th of an inch is enough to get you in trouble.

Sorry Joe.

Speaking of Kyle Busch... They penalized him 6 pts today for the car being too low.

I know we aren't basing our scoring exactly on NASCAR's points system, but are we going to take penalty points away from the people who pick drivers who get penalized? NASCAR does not change the finishing order when they hand down penalties.. So, since we base our points on finishing order (and we don't score points for laps led or most laps led), it kinda seems to me like we wouldn't implement their penalties..

Our points are solely based on finishing order. Anything NASCAR hands down has no effect on our pick results and points.

Cool!

Keeps it simple. Our points system isn't based on their results other than finishing order, so I can't see any reason to muddy the water.
