Well NASCAR race fans the All-Star Weekend is fast approaching, and I told you at the start of the season that things would be different this year, so we are going to have our own Showdown and All-Star races. I have started this thread earlier than usuall so you all can read it and get it figured out. Please be aware that some of the drivers are not in the lineups yet, so hold off on your picks until that week.

http://www.charlottemotorspeedway.com/images/1421884_md.jpg

This race will be a little different from our standard weekly race pool.

Rules are a little different, so pay close attention....


Showdown Race....


This race will invlove those that have NOT won yet this year in the NASCAR Pool here, were NOT in the top 5 in the 2010 NASCAR Pool, and are not in the top 5 of the 2011 NASCAR Pool..... for the rest this will be your qualifing opportunity to get into the All-Star Race.

For those that have already won a race this season in the NASCAR Pool here, or where in the top 5 of the 2010 NASCAR Pool, or are in the top 5 of the 2011 NASCAR Pool, you can skip this step and proceed down to the All-Star Race selection.

There will be five transfer spots.....

Pick the correct winning driver from the list below, pick closest to the lap number of the first caution lap, pick closest to the lap number of the last caution lap, (caution lap picks are for tie breakers) and your the winner for the Showdown Race! The person that picked the closest to all of the above will be transferred into the All-Star Race . We will take the second thru fifth place finishers as well, but those four positions will not be recognized with a weekly title change.

This race is for fun, so no points will be awarded for the season, but the winner will have the weekly title change, and be listed in the weekly winners thread. We will also pass out satfix bux in the following progression....

1st - 50 bux
2nd - 40 bux
3rd - 30 bux
4th - 20 bux
5th - 10 bux

You will need to pick your Showdown driver selection, as well as, your All-Star Selection. In the event that you should win and transfer your selection for the All-Star race will already be posted here and be ready due to the close timing of the All-Star Race.

Example....

Showdown Driver: 7 Robby Gordon
FCL: Lap # 10
LCL: Lap # 30

All-Star Driver: 24 Jeff Gordon
FCL: Lap # 10
LCL: Lap # 70

Remember this is a 40 lap race, with two 20 lap segments, so choose your picks wisely. Deadline is 30 minutes prior to the greenflag. Race time is 7:00 p.m. EST Saturday, May 21, 2011

Example....

Driver: 24 Jeff Gordon

Remember this is a 100 lap race, so choose your picks wisely. Deadline is 30 minutes prior to the greenflag. Race time is 7:00 p.m. EST Saturday, May 21, 2011.

Race format is as follows, so pick your caution laps accordingly (not the manditory caution laps)

ALL-STAR CHALLENGE FORMAT
The 2011 format is as follows:
· Segment 1: 50 laps with a mandatory green-flag pit stop on Lap 25 at which time teams must pit and take on four tires. Following the end of Segment 1, the caution flag will be displayed for an optional pit stop.
· Segment 2: 20 laps with the caution flag displayed at the end of Segment 2 for an optional pit stop.
· Segment 3: 20 laps with a 10-minute break at the end of Segment 3. Teams may make normal adjustments to their cars during this break. The finishing order after the third segment determines the field’s lineup for the pace lap prior to the start of the fourth segment.
· Segment 4: Once the field takes a lap behind the pace car, all cars must enter pit road for a four-tire stop. The order in which the cars exit pit road is how they will line up for the 10-lap shootout with only green-flag laps counting.

FYI...

I updated the drivers list for the races tonight....

All Star Race...
1) Trevor Bayne pussed out and is not going to race, so do not pick him
2) Mark Martin, and Jimmy Johnson are doing stupid $hit with their car numbers for tonight, so if you picked them, make sure you get the name correct in your entry.

Showdown race...
1) J.J. Yeley is driving the 81 car now instead of the 46 car. Don't know if the 46 was a POS or Scott Riggs pussed out of the ride.

Their is my update for this mess of BS!!!

Congrats to costctc for winning the showdown race....

He chose closest to the actual race winner (2nd place finisher, 2 Brad Keslowski), the 2nd - 5th place finishers chose the 6th place finisher (88 Dale Jr.), so your finishing places were determined by your first caution lap choice.

OH!!! and congrats to the rest of the of you in the showdown race, as you all transferred.......I am not leaving five of you behind!!!!

Whats the deal with johnson in the 5 and martin in the 25?

Johnson in the 5 is two things....advertisement for Lowes for 5% off in their store, and patting his own back for 5 straight championships.

Martin in the 25 is for 25 years of racing....but I could not hear (because of toy railroad construction in the house) who's 25 years. I am assuming either Hendricks or Martin.

I hope you all enjoyed something a little different this weekend.

Next weekend we are back to the same thing, BUT the driver tiers have been rearranged to the current NASCAR driver points, so make sure you take note of it when making your selections.
