2024 15th Annual FABO NASCAR "Pick 'Em" Game - One More Time!!!

-
The move on the 22 was bad. Hooking the 11, cheap shot. They were pretty tough on some in the past hooking the right rear and fencing someone. I guess as long it's the last lap or you aren't Wallace, it's OK. Not a wallace fan either.
I am a Wallace fan, I have seen it for two years, he is a great Race car driver in my eyes, and I agree, if it would have been Him this crazy world we live in would chastised Mr. Bubba Wallace.
 
Bumper cars?
Nobody picked #3 Austin Dillon to win the Cook Out 400 so no race winner bonus points award this week.

As a reminder here's a quick explanation of what the above numbers represent:

(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.

How'd you make out with this?
Had my L3 vertebrae repair operation this past Wed. the 7th. Ankle fracture healing by itself, as it's not a weight bearing bone. Sold what was left of Chevelle after the insurance settlement. TODAY is the first day without back pain since 6/27. Thanks for asking. :thankyou:

$50K for saying Chicken Fecal Matter on national TV :eek:

Joey got fined for the burnout and safety stuff... maybe non crew people shouldn't be on the tarmac when cars are live... just a thought. Still doesn't make Joey right.

Dillon got what he should have, no free pass to the playoffs. He can BS all he wants about what happened. He demo'd his way to a win. Keep the trophy and hope you win one of the next three. I did feel bad for him that wrecky Spinhouse caused the late caution, he had the others covered. Same as Indy, Busch goes stupid and allows Larson an opportunity to take the W.
 
On the plus side clearly I am on a roll, as I have now gained a slot and relinquished bottom honors. (For now!) Looking like my Cousin @memike is gonna whip me again this year! Arghh
No whipping going on here, we are just sweeping and keeping the basement clean cousin, wife and I are at Springfield Swapmeet, doing some treasure hunting.
 
Tyler Reddick and Blainy are my picks today (Friday) going to hope to see practice before I pick a pole winner.. I am at the largest swap meet I have ever been to. I am taking a break at the hotel for a couple hour.
Line waiting to go in this morning at 6:45 am..

Have fun cuz, them big ones I walk around real fast just getting a feel for where stuff is then I go back to the rows with the stuff I am looking for. I start walking the rows early and I never make it to the end! I get sucked in! Travel blessings upon thee!
 
Mother Nature determined the starting order for today's FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway so no Pole position bonus this week.
 
@Back in Time, @cuda20, don't forget to post your NASCAR race picks for Michigan. The green flag drops at approximately 2:45 PM EDT (11:45 AM PDT) unless they move the start time because of possible weather concerns.
 
Looks like weather could be challenging :lol:

Today
A chance of showers before 2pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms between 2pm and 3pm, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 3pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 77.

Are LA's recent acquisition of the '28 Olympics partly responsible for that move? It was fun while it lasted though. Amazing moving all that fill material in and doing the grading and paving and then dragging it out days later :realcrazy: :steering: :thumbsup:
