Okay, guys, this is the official Rookie thread. That other one was just a test. Denny Hamlin came in 2nd last weekend, oh so close. But no cigar yet. Real soon though (But glad Junior won). So, I was thinking. Instead of a poll, let's list like we do each week for the race win, except who will be the first rookie to win. Quick, add your pick before it's too late!!! Maybe a rookie will win this weekend, then it will be too late to vote.

Okay, here's what I think the rules should be: Everyone gets one pick, no changes, until a rookie wins. Once qualifying starts, no picks until after that week's race ends. Oops, thanx LSC for pointing this out, yes, more than one person can pick the same driver. Then when that driver wins, everyone that picked him can congratulate each other. I'll keep track of the list.

Edit: Ignore the poll. Ross thought that would work better but we're just going to keep track manually (I am).

1st Rookie to Win as of 5/11/06, 6:28 p.m. est:
Clint Bowyer: Oncea3fan
Denny Hamlin: Smoke842 / Lilsexy08 / Nevadastars / WVGrandma
Reed Sorensen:
David Stremme:
Martin Truex: Lefty Noob / Stephanie
JJ Yeley: LSC99001 / RMJVOL / TN Gal

Very good choice, lilsexy08, I must say. Let's hope he wins first!!! Oh, and when a few more of you have your choices I'll update the list.

Just because someone has to finally get it right I'll go with Yeley. Can more than one poster pick the same driver ?

Hi Guys,

I think we can do what you want with a public poll. Usually, the polls don't display who voted for what but you can have a "public" poll which shows who voted and in what order.

That way, you don't have to keep up with the votes by hand.

Oh, okay. So it looks like if you just click on the number of votes, it displays who voted.

dang, it displays who voted in alphabetical order, not chronological order. Sorry, might be best to just keep up with it like you started, smoke

Good pick, Lefty. I agree with you.
