Nacho was the big winner last week. Nobody picked Vickers to make the Chase so nobody was eligible for the bonus offered up at Richmond (despite all the whining).
Here are the standings after Richmond.
Homedepot20 - 575
Huntr1 - 545
Clevalley - 535
OldHillcrestGuy - 505
Gumbo - 480
Dipstick - 420
Nachomama - 395
Topdick - 320
Citizen Fear - 285
My picks:
Smoke
Martin
Harvick
Johnson
Hamlin
Bowyer
Gordon

No. It's Joey.Joey, baby, don't get crazy,
Detours, fences, I get defensive.
I know you've heard it all before,
So I don't say it anymore,
I just stand by and let you fight your secret war.
And though I used to wonder why,
I used to cry til I was dry,
Still, sometimes I get a strange pain inside.
Oh, Joey if you're hurtin', so am I.
Joey, honey, I've got the money.
All is forgiven, listen, listen.
And if I seem to be confused,
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you say I scared you, well I guess you scared me too.
But we got lucky once before, and I don't wanna close the door,
So if you're somewhere out there passed out on the floor,
Oh, Joey I'm not angry anymore.
And if I seem to be confused,
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you say I scared you, well I guess you scared me too.
But if it's love you're looking for, then I can give a little more,
So if you're somewhere drunk and passed out on the floor,
Oh, Joey I'm not angry anymore.
Angry anymore, angry anymore.

I was in college at Towson when it came out.
My CD collection has everything from the Fantasia soundtrack (classical) to King Diamond (metal) to Rod Stewart (classic rock) to Garth Brooks (country) to Concrete Blonde (90's pop/alternative).

CJ's were an 80's LA punk band and GBH were a British punk band circa late 80's early 90's, pretty obscure though.
I guess a took this tread about as far off topic as it could get. Sorry

Okay we have gone a little :offtopic: lets get back to racing.
Hey Commissioner Dippy, just a suggestion, for the final 12 races, to help some people get more points would there be a problem or would people be interested in maybe picking say the first 7, instead of just the top 5 places.:shrug: I thought last weeks chance of more points wasn't a bad idea with picking who would make the chase.
Just a thought.
Heres my picks:
Jimmy Johnson 1st
Denny Hamlin
Jeff Gordon
Tony Stewart
Mark Martin

Kasey Kahne
Juan Pablo Montoya

Nice picks, without scanning the other people picks too closely, looks like you were the big winner picking 6 of the top 7.

:yeahthat: Looks to me like most of us scored 40 points. One scored 50, one scored 60 and our biggest loser was (Dippy) scored 30. :biggrin:
Unless you consider Toppick and CF as the losers since they didn't put in any picks. :shrug: I like referring to Dippy as the loser though.

Going in standings
Homedepot20 - 575
Huntr1 - 545
Clevalley - 535
OldHillcrestGuy - 505
Gumbo - 480
Dipstick - 420
Nachomama - 395
Topdick - 320
Citizen Fear - 285
Standings after the race by my math:
Homedepot20 - 575 + 40 = 615
Huntr1 - 545 + 50 = 595
Clevalley - 535 + 40 = 575
OldHillcrestGuy - 505 + 40 = 545
Gumbo - 480 + 60 = 540
Dipstick - 420 + 30 = 450
Nachomama - 395 + 40 = 435
Topdick - 320 + 0 (NP) = 320
Citizen Fear - 285 + 0 (NP) = 285
Couple more like this and I will retake 1st. Hey Cle, do these points make my bumper look fat from your spot BEHIND me?

My Graddaddy always told me don't count your chickens until your eggs Hatch!You're right. I did count wrong. It only took ONE race for me to take the lead back.
My unofficial standings after todays race, with the exception of our point leader, we all did pretty good today. Only change is at the top with huntr1 taking back 1st place.
huntr1 595 + 65 = 660
Homede 615 + 30 = 630
clevalley 575 + 55 = 630
OHG 545 + 65 = 610
Gumbo 540 + 40 = 580
Dippy 450 + 45 = 495
Nacho 435 + 40 = 475
Toppick 320 + 40 = 360
