- Rusty Bunch Members Only
- Each week, pick the DRIVER who you think will win that weeks race.
- That DRIVER's finishing position will be added to your total, the 3 lowest totals at the end of the year will win a prize.
- You can only pick a driver once for the first 26 races.
- The last 10 races (the Chase) you can pick a driver again, but only once.
- New players can "buy in" at any time, but will get 43 points for each race missed.
- If you miss a week, you get 43 points.
- If you pick the driver twice, you will get 43 points and a penalty of 10 points.
- If you "Pick The Winner" you get 0 points.
- Entries must be in BEFORE the green flag flies at the start of race.
GOOD LUCK!!!

I think we covered this last year but please refresh my memory on this.

Let's say I pick Dale Jr. for a particular race. On the day of the race, Dale is sick and at the last minute, they throw a substitute driver into his car. The substitute driver wins the race. Do I get 1 point for the victory, 43 points for last place, or some other higher number? Yes, I know this is not likely to happen but I feel compelled to cover all my bases anyway. Thanks!
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

2023 Shows Attended

* Michigan Chapter Winterfest, January 14, Frankenmuth Michigan
* Cabin Fever Reliever, February 24, Mishawaka Indiana

Actually I don't think we've ever covered the topic of picking a driver who is not in the race. As you said, it is unlikely but we'll set the rule right here just in case.......

Each RB member has the opportunity to pick or switch their driver right up until the green flag drops. The DRIVER you have picked is the DRIVER points you will get. If you pick a DRIVER that does not start the race for whatever reason, you will get 44 points.....which is 1 more point than that poor guy who picked the last place driver who actually started the race.

See, that's where I feel it should be Car #. The first year I picked the #11 Hamlin, and 20 minutes before the race he was sick or dizzy, and another driver took his spot. I got the points for the #11. Here is the link to that Race picks and talk of his illness.

Was it David Ragan that filled in for Kyle Bush in the 18 car and then raced another car and # later in the season last year?

I thought it would be better to keep the points more based on how NASCAR does it. The driver that takes the green flag at the start of the race gets the points.
Typically (but not always), if a driver is having issues with injury or sickness, he'll start the race and another driver will take over the car.....but the driver that took the green flag will get the points.

If I understand this right, I picked Vickers in the 14 earlier this year, but I can still pick Stewart in the 14 if I want to?

That is correct.....we are picking the driver and not the car #.
