Congratulations to
@Conover, the recipient of the "Highest Finishing Pick" award following the second place finish of his pick, Brad Keselowski, in the Quaker State 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
With a streak of four consecutive Top Ten picks, including a Top Five pick in each of the last three races,
@Conover has vaulted to the top of the player standings and holds a 25 point lead over second place
@kkfan91 and
@RayinTX.
The standings leader after the last race,
@RayinTX, found that honor to be short-lived thanks to the next-to-last place of his pick, Corey LaJoie.
The "Most Upward Movement" award was shared by
@JJ_14,
@hmmm298, and
@FLRacingFan who each gained five spots in the standings.
By picking a Top Ten finishing driver in five of the last seven races,
@JJ_14, who at one point was buried in 32nd place in the standings, cracked the Top Ten for the first time this season.
Four separate "Slipping and Sliding" awards were delivered using an Amazon account (with free shipping) and left on the doorsteps of
@ToyYoda,
@Brentford,
@Magicmiler, and
@Greg after they each gave up five spots in the standings.
The quest by
@Greg to sneak into the Top 20 in the player standings (he was within two points) took a royal punch in the nose when his pick, Austin Cindric, got caught up in a melee early in the race and finished 38th, thereby dropping
@Greg to the 26th place in the standings, 30 points . . . . ah, never mind.
