2023 13th Annual FABO NHRA "Pick 'Em" Game - It's NITRO Burnin' Time!!!

Congratulations to 'memike' (FABO) and 'stroked340' (FABO) for sharing the 41st annual Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals "Top Picker Eliminator" title with very nice totals of 110.5 points each.
Their shared professional class picks in Funny Car and Pro Stock won their respective classes. Their shared Top Fuel pick lost in the second round of eliminations. They DID NOT earn any ET or Speed bonus points because they did not post new picks this week; their picks were carried over from previous weeks.
'Budnicks' was the top FBBO player with 98.0 points.


Here's where the ET and Speed bonus points were earned if you picked the right drivers:
