Guess who I have tonight?  Wondering if I should change my pick lol.

First time for everything and I think the track has only been hosting races for 6-7 years.  I have KyBu too!

uh oh... Aren't you the kiss of death ? (for BB)

He is the kiss of death for everyone!

I am, lol. But it doesn't apply to other drivers. BB has a good history at this track so I'm hedging my bets and hope he does well today. He can lead some laps and finish 2nd. I'm about 95% certain san's bonus picks have BB winning and Ford. I took KyBu for the win and Toyota. As you get a few more races under your belt billsfan you'll learn some folks (cough, cough) are SOOOOO predictable, lol. I have no loyalty - I go with who I think gives me the best chance week to week.

Damn Rooster, he is calling you out again!!

not quite!

Sans roster week 1 - BB, Logano, Harvick, 2 scrubs.  Rinse and repeat for the next 35!

Edit, I stand corrected.  Only the first 14 races this year.  She's mixed it up a little the last couple races but I can almost guarantee back to the norm for today!

Figure I can share my roster since I'm in 1st.  If anyone wants to copy, have at it since no points to be gained.

Oh no BB !

LMAO. The curse continues....

Time to Elliot and Dinger!

Nooooooo! Lol

Congrats Bills. 2 in a row! You may catch gomey by the end of the year.

Thanks!

Congrats on another win Billsfan!

And damn damn damn at BB!!!

Thanks San!
poor BB... he does have a target on his back.

So I set my roster, then changed it twice!

Think long, think wrong.

Fixed it for you.

LOL Aug.
BB actually was part of my change. I swapped him for Kenseth, then switched it back.

Busted KY Busch!

I was glad to see that!!!!

Toyota's were strong today.

Way to go Aug !

Thanks Bills. I wish E would slack up a bit. I'm not worried about san, rooster, or gomey, lol

My begrudging "congrats" Aug!

A good blog post by BB this week.....

THE FAULT IN OUR STARS

If y'all didn't see it, Hendricks announced that Alex Bowman will take over the #88 in 2018.  I think Kenseth was hoping to land that drive for a year, but this means he still doesn't have a place to call home for next year.

Confirmed: Alex Bowman to take over No. 88 from Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Hmmm, I figured they'd give the car to someone a little more relevant. ie: Elliot driving Gordon's old 24.

PS:

Good luck today!

Hendricks sure has a stable of young drivers!

I was out picking up dinner and was surprised to see they started the race early. Did they say why as if they checked radar they could see that a batch of rain was moving in. Is there a logical reason that they started it knowing it would rain ten minutes later?

I was at the store and missed the early start Billsfan, so I'm not sure why they did. One thing I do know is that I hate delays!

You are right about Hendricks and young drivers. Not sure if it was in that article I posted, but one I read said that the average age will now go from 40 to 31 I think.

I know what you mean San. Hate delays

I wonder if the early start has something to do with a refund policy or something? Very strange they would start it, especially early

Back to racing!!

One more gripe lol.
I hate when they run so many laps under caution when restarting. It pit road wasn't ready, wait until it is.

Hey Billsfan, I'm not sure they started the race early. It was scheduled for a 2:30pm start EDT

Really? Hmmm, we thought 3:00? Guess we had bad info.

Thanks San

Boy am I happy I benched Chase this week.

Oh wow at KyBu and Truex!!

That helps me with fantasy (even though I have KyBu), but I really hated to see that with those two.

That does change things! Go JJ lol

lol..... go BB!!!

Need a caution soon!

And that is the one we need!! I'm kicking myself in the hiney. I have NEVER not had BB as the winner with Ford and I switched things up today dammit

Strategy and fuel will be the factors for the remaining laps...... BB has to get fuel..... Bayne has enough (I think) .....Kahne has enough

JJ needs fuel too

Hubby' s favorite driver is Kahne and its his birthday today.
