My apologies for being so late posting the NASCAR "Pick 'Em" game results after Darlington. The flu bug caught me last weekend and I was out of the game for a few days. Finally back to semi-normal on Thursday.
Congratulations to 'Avispa' (FABO), 'Dart_Doctor' (FABO), and 'riverdawg' (FBBO) for picking #5 Kyle Larson to win the 2023 Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway. Each picked up -5 bonus points.
Congrats also to '44070dart' (FABO) for picking race runner-up #45 Tyler Reddick. He picked up -3 bonus points for the pick.
#11 Denny Hamlin was the race leader at the end of Stage 1, #45 Tyler Reddick was in 2nd place.
#11 Denny Hamlin was the race leader at the end of Stage 2, #5 Kyle Larson was in 2nd place.

Please post your picks for the next race and let me know if you want to "lock" them in for future weeks. I will put an "L" before either your Pole pick or your race picks to show they've been "locked".
As always, you can always make different picks each week. Your "locked" picks will always be there should you forget to post your race picks, your computer malfunctions or the site should go down temporarily.
Don't forget to get your picks for the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway posted before the green flag drops at approximately 6:15pm EDT (3:15pm PDT) on Sunday, September 10.
Your Pole Pick for Kansas will need to be posted before qualifying starts at 12:45pm EDT (9:45am PDT) on Saturday, September 9.
