Just a reminder, as per Rule #2 of the official game rules:

"Only the 36 points paying races are included in the game, meaning races such the Clash, the Daytona Duels, and the All-Star Race are not included."

The 2020 NASCAR Cup Series is in the home state of @TexasRaceLady for the running of the O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway.

The most popular pick for this race, selected by nine players, is a driver who is currently riding a streak of six consecutive top ten finishes, Aric Almirola.

Kurt Busch was selected by three players.
Good luck to all and thanks for participating.

Got a 23rd from Suarez thanks to the attrition. Not bad at all.

I'm ok with a P10 from Almirola, but the real winners here are @Michfan, @Conover & @donthaveanickname with a P23 from Suarez. That's some good value right there. @DC76 & @REBS31 with a solid outing as well.

Pattern ? What pattern ?

Actually Bell brought it home in 21st place, three laps down.

The bonehead move by Houff that caused Bell to smack into him sure didn't help any.

Congrats to @Michfan who took the "Highest Finishing Pick" award as his pick, Austin Dillon, finished first in the O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway.

Additional congrats to @Michfan as he had the most upward movement in the standings by moving up six spots.

Congrats also to @aunty dive who maintained his first place position in the standings for the third consecutive race.

Help me out here, please. In that Paul Simon song, what comes after, "The nearer your destination, ..."? I can't quite recall but I feel it should be important to me.

Have you tried traction compound?

PJ1 have a nice product on the market.

Yep, that traction compound might just keep you from . . . . .
