2014 Driver Groups

The 2014 edition of the driver groups are available. Click on this link: http://texracer.x10.bz/2014DriverGroupsRevised.pdf

Also, would like to post a reminder of the rules of the Nascar Pool. Click on this link: http://texracer.x10.bz/NascarPoolRules.pdf

Apparently Daryl's son, Kelvin, will be organizing things this year while Daryl is away. You can contact him at 226-821-4442. Text or phone, either is good. Any questions, please contact him at that number.

Good luck everybody!

Edit 2/8/14 - little boo-boo in the driver list. Had Ryan Newman listed twice. That's been corrected.

Pool status update

Just received a call from Daryl. He's down in Arizona somewhere, living the life (of sunshine)! Seems that the pool is on so I'll be getting some driver picks sorted out in the next day or so.

Keep tuned for contact info.

New season

So a new season is upon us. I'm not sure what the status of the pool is as I haven't been contacted by Daryl. I believe that he's someplace warm and less mucky, which is good for him but I'm damn jealous!

It's a lot of work to set up the standings sheet for the year, so if there's no one to organize the pool then I'm not going to invest the time to get everything set up.

I guess last year Daryl's brother Mike helped to organize the pool but, again, haven't heard anything from him either.

If one of those two guys want to contact me and let me know if the pool is a go, then I can get started and get some driver groupings set up. They have my cell number so they can call or text. My e-mail address is j.k.houston at hotmail.com if they want to send me an e-mail.

If that doesn't happen, I don't think that I'll do the pool by myself. It's been fun but I'm more a fan of IndyCar than Nascar. This was just something I did to help a friend.  :)

Final standings

Well, another season has come and gone. Congratulations to our winner, MexyCan and the 5 other players that will receive a prize. Thanks to Daryl for putting this together every year and thanks once again to all the people who take part in the Nascar Pool.

We hope that you've had fun keeping track of your favourite drivers throughout the season and hope that you'll be back for more next year.

I should have the drivers picks available just after New Years, once the drivers seats are somewhat settled and we know who will be racing.

Our final standings are:
1) MexyCan 2347
2) Bucked Up 2400
3) Mr. Rogers 2429
4) No-Howe 2468
5) Any-Howe 2482

6) Eat My Dust 2550

Please contact Daryl to claim your prize at 705-323-9732

'til next year!

Texas results

Hey lookie there, JJ wins again.  : \

That's getting almost as boring as F1 races...

Anyway, I've got the standings updated. I'm going to be away this coming up weekend so there won't be any updates but I'll be sure to get the standings updated for the last race of the season. It looks to me like the same Top 5 are going to finish in the Top 5. Not too sure about the order but there isn't anyone that can catch them, at this point.

There's certainly a race for the 6th position which pays out a free pass for next years pool and that's a bit of a tight race right now. Eat My Dust and Sassy Sammy 2 are within 5 points of each other so that can definitely go either way. The next player is more than 50 points back so that's the end of that.

I hope everyone had fun following their favourite driver this year and I hope that everyone returns for next years pool. I'll get the driver picks up probably around the start of the new year so people can start figuring out who to pick.  :)
