I went ahead and randomized our drivers for the weekend's race if Webbeh doesn't mind. Initially arranged by last year's finish and current NASCAR rankings (at least what Google tells me are the rankings, anyway).




Here is your race car man that you'll be cheering for!
Joey Logano - Fork of Unknown Origins
Kyle Busch - Mr. World
Kevin Harvick - Webbeh
Denny Hamlin - LeeMajors
Martin Truex Jr. - DC Murderverse
Brad Keselowski - Scionix
Kurt Busch - The Piper
Chase Elliott - Metapod
Aric Almirola - kayakyakr
Ryan Blaney - TheFlyingLlama
Alex Bowman - JesusTheDarkLord
William Byron - vyst
Erik Jones - Ninja Bob
Kyle Larson - Dilber
Clint Boyer - HOTLANTA MAN
Ryan Newman - Spintzel
Jimmie Johnson - komet
Daniel Suarez - Will Styles
Paul Menard - Taxes
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. - jabro

This works for me. Thanks for doing the magic and randomizing! Let's turn left, and then turn left again!

I'm so sad we can't race on the Bojangles 500, but is the GoBowling at The Glen race this Sunday good for all?

It’s a road race so there are some rights in there every once in awhile. That’s why it’s a good race to do this. Everyone who thinks they have a good driver doesn’t really since for some reason turning your steering wheel the opposite way requires a completely different skill set.


That said, my driver is the best. As long he hasn’t crashed before the last 5 laps he will wreck every single driver on the last lap to secure the win.

Stenhouse is pretty good, but he's never won at the Glen. Truex Jr, Kyle Busch, Chase Elliott, Joey Logano, and Denny Hamlin are the active recent winners.

Tony Stewart used to be an automatic there. And Jeff Gordon.

Stenhouse is horrible at road courses and that was part of the joke.

OK, so some folks go double-check the rules. I think everything is set up properly (though I don't remember what caused the draft snafu last year... that should still be fixed).

noice.

7th is high enough to get good players but low enough i can start by drafting whoever SDSU's RB in the first round is and only be seen as "majorly weird" instead of "total rear end in a top hat"
