Please let me know if I show either your Pole or Race picks incorrectly or if you have any questions.

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.

I saw a story online yesterday announcing that Jimmie Johnson's two-car Legacy Motor Club is changing brands for the 2024 NASCAR season. Both #42 Noah Gragson and #43 Erik Jones will be in Toyotas in 2024 rather than Chevrolets.
 
Bubba Wallace, hmmmm yep, could get me a pole win, put me in coach!!
 
Kansas Pole:

#5 Kyle Larson

...unless I change my mind after today's practice
 
No Pole bonus point this week.
Nobody like #24 William Byron to be the quickest around Kansas for qualifying.
 
Kansas race picks...

#12 Blaney
#20 Bell

I apologize to both drivers and anyone else who may have picked these drivers.
 
Blaney in his #12 Ford
And let's see if Joey Lagono in his 22 ford can stay safe and away from drivers that just enjoy removing him from the race, yep, 12 and 22 Penske cars please.
 
Ok, I have been watching and going to races for yearsss. I see these tracks where to go fast you have to drive off the race surface and below the lines to turn the best laps. Now to my simple mind, doesn't that mean there is a flaw in the track design in the first place, or am I just an old man who has to grump about something. I do grump. :mad: I'm grumping about the end of the race yesterday as I had the 5. :( :(
