OSFC- The All-Star race formerly known as The Winston

[Mo]

It's the All-Star race. So we are gonna do things a little different.

First of All, a total of 100 bonus points will be up for grabs, in a "winner take all" format, well sort of.

Here is how we will roll, each user will need to select two drivers this week, one from the list of drivers in the Open, and one from a list of drivers already in the Main Feature.

Points awarded will be like this, If you select the Winner in the Open, you get 25 bonus points. Second gets you nothing.

If you select the winner in the Sprint All Star Race, you get 50 bonus points. Second gets you 25 points, third gets you nothing.

It's possible for one person to get all 100 points, though I doubt that will happen, so pick wisely.

List for drives will be found on the next post.

Selection is also different. Points standings will be used, It will go Top to bottom for those in the Main Feature, and bottom to top for the Open selection.

Race is On Saturday

I'm gonna borrow this from Mike,

Pick the amount of cars based on the place you are picking, if you pick 2nd pick 2 cars, 5th 5 cars, and so on.

Place the driver who you want the most at the top, 2nd most 2nd, and so on until you fill the list based on how many you need.

As I gather the list I will mark off cars from your list that have been taken. I will then take the driver who is highest on your list, that is left.

Please send me a PM with your picks. We are all members here at OS, and it's much easier to deal with it all in one place.

If I mess up, please let me know ASAP.

Please don't submit your picks on this thread, unless you want everyone in front of you to know who you really want.

Finally, don't forget to have fun

Re: OSFC- The All-Star race formerly known as The Winston

Dale Jr. posted on another forum that his NW team spends about $100K each race weekend and it's going to cost the top 15 teams about $2 million to get the new NW cars ready.

I always knew racing was expensive, but I guess it never occurred to me that they spend $100,000 each weekend. That's insane. I'd hate to know how much more a cup team spends.

Re: OSFC- The All-Star race formerly known as The Winston

I'll take #11 Denny Hamlin for the main event.

Re: OSFC- The All-Star race formerly known as The Winston

Yeah, it's ugly. I've seen others say they like the new NW cars, and maybe it's just the Camry (Or that paint scheme) that's ugly, but I think they look worse than the Cup COT.

I'll take #24 Jeff Gordon in the Sprint Race.

I almost picked him just so you wouldn't get him.

I think its the paint scheme that makes it look ugly.
