3月13日 My Nascar League 2006
My Chase for the Cup! Before the season started we had to pick a single driver for every race of the 2006 Nextel Cup Series. You could list 5 drivers, to use three seperate times during the season. For the rest of the races, and the rest of the drivers, you could only use a driver once. Points are received every week, from where your driver finishes in the race. Since 43 cars race every week, if your driver finishes 1st, you receive 43 points for the week. If your driver finishes 2nd, you receive 42 points. For third, you receive 41 points. etc. Down to last place,(43rd,) you receive 1 point. You also receive 5 extra points if your driver for the week places first, and an additional 5 points if your driver qualifies for pole position before that weeks race. At the end of the season, your point total ranks you in the league, and the prize pool of about $1,500 is paid out, along with the Nextel Fantasy League Cup Championship.
Since most of my band is in this same league, the big money, means big bragging rights. Were taking it way too seriously.
*In this section below, I will update every week of how I am doing in the league.

Last Race: North Carolina Lowes
The Coca-Cola 600 is the longest race of the year. It holds a ton of room for lead changes and making up mistakes. Junior was fast! After suffering a penalty for pitting outside his box, he was held for a lap. But he had enough time to make up th edifference. If it was not for him having to pit for gas in the last 40 laps, he may have had a shot. A 11th place was pretty good, but a top ten would have been better.
Jimmy Johnson failed to repeat his domination of Lowes, when Kasey Kahne had the car to beat. No one came close in the last 15 laps to make a fair chase for the win. This marks Kasey's 3rd win of the year, tying Jimmy Johnson for the most wins thus far.
A ton of people picked JJ for the race, so a ton of top points were given out in the league. With a 11th place finish from Junior, I slipped to forth place. Not too bad, since it could have been worse. But it puts me to the wall these next two weeks. I need a huge point maker in the next two weeks, or I fear to fall off the leaderboard.
Next Race: Dover Operation: June-Bug turns to Biffle on the Monster Mile. He won this race last year, but that really means nothing. What does help, is he has had as good of a car set up as anyone all year, just some bad luck has taken him out of the top ten, and he is in much need for some good finishes. That makes two of us, so I feel confident that this week we will have a strong showing.
After a tough couple of weeks for my team, anything less could result in ending our season early.
My Next Weeks Driver: Gregg Biffle #16
OPERATION: REDLINE At the begining of the season, when we made our picks, we choose April for a strong run at the leaderboard. At the end of the month marks the end of the first quarter of the season. This is our mission for the rest of the month of April. 4/9/06 Texas Motor Speedway= 1.5 mile oval track. *After two weeks of short tracks, we are back into some faster speeds. My Driver is #20 Tony Stewart, who won last week in Martinsville. His current odds in Vegas for a win in Texas is 10-1. After week #6, he is in 8th place for total season point standings. 4/22/06 Phoenix International Raceway= 1.0 mile oval track. *This will be the first night race of the season, so we are all excited to be racing under the lights. My driver will be #16 Greg Biffle, who is always a strong driver, but seldom takes the win. Current Vegas odds are unavailable, but will probably end up to be 20-1, if not better. This will be his debut appearance for my team this season. I will have him drive for me 2 more times by the end of the year. 4/30/06 Talladega Motor Speedway= 2.66 mile tri-oval track. *A huge track, which means huge speeds, and huge crashes. You need to be tough, and they don't get much tougher then Smoke. #20 Tony Stewart is my driver for this race, and he will be expected to make some bumps throughout the afternoon. Hopefully by the end of this race, I will be on top of the leaderboard. Vegas odds are unavailable, but I would have to put him at a 6-1, to 10-1 for Week#9 in Talladega. My Current Stats
