    So the $64,000 question- will hanny stick with jj for the cup race or will he go for another kylefecta?? Driver changes must be made NO LATER THAN 2:44pm ET tomorrow.

  20. Hello Miss SB!

    Please give me a chance to win outright by switching my Cup driver to Jimmie Johnson...

    Thank you very much!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Dwindy-

    I'll make the change, but right now Hanny has JJ in the cup race, and he's ahead of you in points. He may go for the Kylefecta, but I haven't heard anything yet.

    ReplyDelete
  22. ouch! bad brad killed me...sigh. I hang in the basement for awhile I think. Kurt will redeem!

    ReplyDelete
  23. hey Speedy, the Han Man changed his Cup driver a minute prior to your 2nd race results post. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Driver change for me in the Cup race: Happy Harvick. Moseby and I both had Smoke but he's ahead of me in the points and I noticed no one picked Harvick in the Cup race. (Dwindy picked Harvick in the NNS race.)

    ReplyDelete
  25. all driver changes noted and logged in. let me know if I missed one-

    Hanny- dropping jj for KYLE!

    dwindy- dropping Carl for jj

    jon- dropping Tony for Happy

    ReplyDelete
  26. Dang. Should've stuck with Gordon.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Speedy, are you sticking with your change to Kyle?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Yes, I stuck with my change to Kyle. At this point, it was more about not finishing at the bottom than it was going for the win.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Well, for a little while there, it looked like Hanny was going to score another Kylefecta. Even though Kyle fell short of the final victory, his second place finish still gives Hanny the Trifecta victory.

    The final standings:

    Hanny 4
    Dwindy 7
    moseby 11
    CR 14
    jon 18
    RA6AN 32
    JD 33
    SB 37
    Tez 43
    Bev 47
    kristen 47

    Reminder: The next Trifecta will be the weekend of March 25.

  30. Good job Gene! Congratulations on your win!

    For a good part of the race, I wondered if I DID make the right decision, as Happy was struggling and Smoke was running up front. But a solid 4th place was good for Happy.

  31. Congrats Gene! I am just going to hold court in the basement for awhile then make my championship run closer to summer a-la Smoke.

  32. Nice job Han! Looked for awhile that another Kylefecta was in order.
