CWTS – Kyle “Quit pickin’ on me!” Busch
F1 –-- Sebastian “You believe yet?” Vettel
NWS –- Bad Brad “Motor Mouth” Keselowski
Thank you Speedy!
Dwindy- Still can't see past the end of my nose but hopeful that will change soon.
ReplyDeleteNot liking these races on Friday nights up against Sharktank!
ReplyDeleteCWTS...Kyle
F-1....Alonso
NW.....E Sad
CWTS--Matt Crafton
ReplyDeleteF1--Lewis Hamilton (who'll be swapping rides with Smoke in June at Watkins Glen; should be interesting to see how he handles the #14 Office Depot Chevrolet and Smoke handles an F1 rig)
NNS--Justin Allgaier
Retch..gag..gag...Okay I think I can play now! LOL
ReplyDeleteTrucks - Dillon
F1 - Alonso
NW - Edwards
Trucks - Austin Dillon
ReplyDeleteF1 - Sebastian Vettel
NW - Justin Allgaier
and, just for fun:
V8 Supercars - Jason Bright
Showdown - Marcos Ambrose
All-star - Clint Bowyer
Trucks....Clint Bowyer
ReplyDeleteF1....Mark Webber
NW....Carl Edwards
Tez... I'm saddened by the loss of Highcroft Racing in ALMS. Honda pulled the plug, and now David Brabham/Marino Franchitti have no ride at LeMans. Japan is falling apart...
Trucks - Bowyer
ReplyDeleteF1 - Hamilton
NW - ESadler
I concur, CR :(
ReplyDeleteon a side note to Jon's blurb about the Tony/Lewis swap, I've been doing some quick calculations. Asuming an F1 car is quicker than a Daytona Prototype and Lewis does a lap of the Glen in 60 seconds, based on the fact that Lowndes lapped the Bathurst track within a second of what Button managed a couple months back in an '08 McLaren, Tony needs to go 60.5 to 'match' what the former V8 Supercar champ did....no pressure, birthday boy ;)
Now, now Kristen. Katie does have a stuffed scallop shell(it gurgles when she chews on it).
ReplyDeleteBev sent her picks in via Facebook. She went with Dillon in the CWTS. Still waiting on her drivers for the other races.
Standings after one:

Am I too late to pick Brad for NW and Button for F1? Haven't got the hang of new BBerry to see who races in F1! Thank you, SB!
ReplyDeleteWell... Looks like it's not the end of the world afterall... Now if I can just get all my money back! LOL!
ReplyDeleteBev- Nope you're not too late. Of course this may all be moot by this evening.
ReplyDeleteDwindy- you've still got a few hours. The end of the world doesn't begin until 6:00pm in all time zones
"It's the end of the world as we know it.... and I feel fine" Well, of course we always have 2012 to finish us off... lol
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how Vettel is dominating the competition. ...and what happened to Fernando? Great move to steal the lead on the start, but finishes "almost" a lap down!
ReplyDeleteAfter two-
ReplyDeleteDwindy 2
moseby 4
CR 6
Hanny 6
SB 6

Bev 10
kristen 12

Dwindy looking for perfection. Will Carl or E-Sad spoil the party????
Dwindy captures his 2nd straight win and his 4th win of the season. He must be channelling his inner JJ because he is also dominating the stats. In the 9 Trifectas so far this season, Dwindy has picked 11 first place drivers, 6 second place drivers, and 5 third place drivers. That means that out of 27 picks to date, Dwindy's picks have finished outside the top three only 5 times.
ReplyDeleteThe final standings:
Dwindy 5
CR 8
moseby 9
SB 9
Hanny 11
Bev 13
kristen 14
tez 16
jon 36
Next week brings us the Big 3- the Grand Prix of Monaco, the Indianapolis 500, the Coca Cola 600, as well as a Nationwide race. Will dwindy continue his domination or will someone else rise to the occasion? See you next week.
Congrats Dwindy!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Dwindy! Your stats are amazing!
ReplyDeleteDarn! 2nd place again! Congrats Dwindy, from the first place looser! lol
ReplyDeleteWTG Dwindy!
ReplyDeleteThat is enough! You are becoming the Kyle of the Trifecta. Booooooooo!
Hey! Thanks one and all... Including Gene... LOL!
ReplyDeleteI've been very fortunate with the open wheel selections... Vettel and Will Power have been dominating.
The tide will turn...
