Congratulations to both 'LocuMob' (FABO) and 'Sublime one' (FABO) for sharing the best qualifier pick as their 'locked-in' qualifier pick of #5 Kyle Larson's lap of 23.084 was quickest around the 0,875-mile Iowa Speedway oval. They each grabbed -1 bonus point.

OK, I recorded your Iowa picks as #9 and #6.

 

[44070dart]

I kind of like it as #6 and #9, but hey it's your choice as too who's first.. or last, I always say.

 

[Yunick13]

Can I have Terry Labonte in the 5 car, and Jeff Gordon in the 24?

@memike, don't forget to post your picks for the Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway in Newton, IA, posted before the green flag drops at approximately 7:15 PM EDT (4:15 PM PDT) today.

Its going to take experience and soft smart hands to fight the tire fall off, I am still figuring my two Penske me Joey and Ryan in there 12 and 22 cars may make it to victory here..they need one.

22 and the 12 cars here.

 

[Unconventional]

Did they crash out the whole field or sumthin? All they showed for the last 20 laps that I watched was 4 or 5 cars. Looks like a good speedway, I hope they return to it.

(your score before the race) (your Pole pick car #) (Pole winner bonus point) (race pick car #) (race pick car #) (Stage 1 bonus points) (Stage 2 bonus points) (race pick finish position) (race pick finish position) (race winner/runner-up bonus points) (your score after the race)
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.
