Arrow Any Nascar Fantasy League Players ??? Join a League- Play the Game.

Any Nascar fans out there?!

Theres lots of Nascar fans, although Im not sure how many on this site. But lets find out. Here's the plan. I'm going to start leagues for "The Ultimate Fantasy League" that is run by Nascar on their site. Located here. http://fantasy.nascar.com/games/league/ Which is free to join.

I'll start with 3 leagues for now since the first race is in 2 days. I know I should have thought of this sooner.

I will pick certain races, Daytona, Richmond, 'Dega, Bristol etc. The actual races will be determined later. But Daytona 500 will be the first. The Points leader in each of those leagues will receive a 1 week rental of their choice, but you will have to pay shipping usually around $20-$30 for both shipping to you and back to me. Depending on the weight of the lens. They come with tracking numbers, and shipping insurance.

If you already have a league sign up with another email address to join this league if you would like.

The Passwords to join a league are as follows.

RIGGS22524 ( 5 Spots currently available ) My league name is KevinRCG
SHEPH20533 ( 5 Spots currently available ) My league name is KevinRCG2
MENAR11697
( 5 Spots currently available ) My league name is KevinRCG3


The Rules:

* You can only enter one league. This will maximize the number of users here on POTN involved in the game.

* If you already have a nascar account create a new account ( its free ) with the same username you use here on POTN. If your first Nascar account is the same name as you use here and you are already in another league use the same name but add a number at the end.

* Prizes will only be awarded to United States Residents.

* Cost is free to join and play.

* The 1 week rental of choice may be used at any time during. If you win more then once you can turn it into another week rental or use on another lens.


I will post the names of member in each league once the leagues fill up. I will also add more leagues as they are needed.


Kevin

I'll play but will have to sign up later tonight. I think Nascar fans are few and far between here in the north.

Bummer... I didnt even get to pick and I signed up right before my post because I had no Idea how to.. haha. It states in the rules that the driver must be entered by 11:30 FRIDAY before the race. Looks like we ALL missed it!

"IMPORTANT: The auction begins when the first participant enters a league. It ends 24 hours after the sixth (final) person enters the league. Auctions are held between the hours of 8:00 AM - 11:59 PM ET.
If your auction has not concluded by 11:59 PM ET, it will be suspended until 8:00 AM ET the following day. To be eligible for the current weeks race, your auction draft must be completed by Friday 11:30 PM ET."


For future races everyone should know this. Maybe if we pick before the race and post it here, Kevin will still give us our weeks rental if we win...haha if we pick correctly... but not likely. Dont hurt to try does it.

Just for fun, the Stats of the previous winners ....
2005 Jeff Gordon
2004 D. Earnhardt Jr.
2003 Michael Waltrip
2002 Ward Burton
2001 Michael Waltrip
2000 Dale Jarrett
1999 Jeff Gordon
1998 Dale Earnhardt
1997 Jeff Gordon
1996 Dale Jarrett
1995 Sterling Marlin
1994 Sterling Marlin
1993 Dale Jarrett
1992 Davey Allison
1991 Ernie Irvan
1990 Derrike Cope
1989 Darrell Waltrip
1988 Bobby Allison
1987 Bill Elliot

So who will take it this year.......

Gordon - No WAY.
Earnhardt Jr. - YES, unless his car is tuned for crap or someone takes him out!!! haha.

Paul

PS. If anyone can get me pit passes to shoot photos at any race. HOOK ME UP! I know a guy that can rent me a lens to cover it better than anyone!

Well that sucks! I should have thought of this earlier. Looks like we will miss the first race. But it'll give everyone a few days to sign up instead of a few hours. DOH! I guess sign up when they open and we will go from there, see how many leagues get filled.

Elliot Sadler finished the race upside down 3 years a go and then backwards the year after at Daytona, atleast I think it was Daytona. Also Ryan Newman has finished a few races upside down, but the race wasnt complete.

I still haven't been to a race, yet I'm close enough to Dover and Pocono.
