Race Summary:

Update:  Here are the "results" of the all-star race.  Nobody got 10 for 10, but we had quite a few 7/10 and a lot of 6/10.  The lineup selection page has been updated to show your new salary cap.

<<Previous Week>>

The Intimidator tops us all for the second week in a row!  This week was only by a one point margin with Cattleman right on his heels.  We had some great lineups this week... almost half of the teams had a 40 pt lineup or less.  Apparently I've been making the drivers too affordable... lol.  Don't worry, I'm not hiking the driver prices through the roof like the local gasoline prices.  My philosophy on driver pricing: make them high enough to get people to really think about choosing their lineups, but not so outrageous that you can't have 2 or 3 or maybe even all 4 drivers in the top 10 of a race.  I think it's more fun this way.  Teams seem to be mixing it up, too - just a few of the lineups were identical this week.  Anyway, back to Darlington... Speedracer had a 3rd place race lineup that was good enough to gain 3rd place in the season standings, too!  4U2Envy had a 4th place race lineup, and while holding steady in the season standings, he gained 13 points on the #1 dirty duck.  Things are getting closer at the top.  Everyone is gunning for dirty duck, who has spent more time at the top than Jeff Gordon.  Any challengers?  Race junky had him beat for a few laps, but then fell back into second spot.  This week, race junky gained 6 points on our leader and could be poised for a pass if the lineup hits just right next time.  The rest of the top 10 did some switch-a-roo, but no one new and no one fell out, although trentonk is just 2 points outside the season top 10 now.  Not a lot of action back in the pack.  The aforementioned Intimidator climbed 3 more spots with the #1 race lineup, and Shake N Bake must have shook something loose and fell apart, dropping 3 spots.  I need some crackers to go with my whine, as Hot Rod Wildcat had a 5th place race roster but still fell a spot (actually tied) behind The Intimidator.  Just goes to show you it's not how good you are... it's how good you are compared those around you!

Team Recognition:

Kudos to Off Constantly as yet another race winner was selected.  That makes 8 on the season, leaving the rest of us in the dust in that category.

No dipstick award this week - everyone got their lineups in on time and we didn't have any lineups over 70 points.  Kyle Busch was really the only stub-your-toe-in-the-dark-hallway driver this week.  (translation: something ugly happened when you weren't expecting it and never saw it coming.)

NOTICE!!!  The All-Star race is not a season points race and therefore not included in the season standings.  I haven't really heard of any ideas for the all-star race, so here's my thoughts...
I want to give everyone the chance to help out their season, so here's what we're gonna do.  Email me ten drivers.  Don't try to submit them online, it won't work for this race.  Email me at hotrodwildcat@hotmail.com.  For each driver you select that finishes in the top ten - you'll get $1000 added to your salary next race.  So, if all 10 drivers finish in the top ten, you get $10,000 extra to spend on your lineup next race.  This way, everyone wins... or at least has a chance to.  If you're like me, you could have a $200,000 salary cap and still have a 40 point roster!
