[Team Yates]

Welcome to our forum, Hot Wheels!! Glad to hear that you plan on joining us often!! I'm not the one to help you out with your fantasy league, but there are plenty of people here who will probably have some input for you. Hope to see you join in our little predictions thread - we pick who we think will finish 1st and 2nd. It is a toughie, but it was actually done twice last year. It's always alot of fun, I'll be waiting to add your picks to the list!!

[Bob Tanner]

Looks as though you're going to have to work on your page composition. The groups didn't make sense, as they appeared on my screen.

[Mike24]

Yea, the groups don't make sense at all. Explain a little better, and I'll give you some help.

[LSC9901]

The "space bar" doesn't compute real well on these forums. The program closes up most spaces. That is what happened to the groups. It needs to be done over without all the spacing that was initially put into the post.

Sorry about that!

I may have missed it, so this may be stupid question #1, but what are we picking for? Is it the Daytona 500 winner, or this year's champion or what? Sorry if I missed it. My brain is fried from shoveling snow up here in lake effect land.

It would be for the championship cadet. Basically your picking each week and gettin points off your picks. At the end of the year, the person(not driver) who has the most points in the league wins.

Interesting. I'll take a look at these.

[Hot Wheels]

i need to pick 1 from each group and get points for that driver each week and after every fifth race we can drop up to two drivers or leave as is..
groups change tho...
any suggestions on as who i should pick from each group.
i would not ask but i dont know nothing about nascar and would love to take my fellow workers to the bank!

I choked on a couple of these predictions. My fingers almost wouldn't let me put Kurt Busch in there but I closed my eyes and did a little deep breathing and it was all good. Be warned, my predictions usually stink. Good luck!
