Just wanted to send out a quick Congrats to Naz, I am pretty sure he kicked out azz this week. He should make a huge move in the overall standings as well. Congrats Naz.

Justin

I think TAD and TAFC should be in the picks as well

Just my opinion

Although there's a couple of reasons why I didn't include sportsman classes.
I guess the main one was that is would be more work for me that I don't have time to do. last years game had sportsman classes and it could get very confussing. Not sure why it's to pc to not have alky/sportsman

 

[Joker]

I agree PJ, its too time consuming to have the alky classes. It should be pro only.

Well let me start by saying this...thanks you for the time you put in setting this up.....You see TAD/TAFC racers are racing on their own dime and would love to be included in the "pick the winners" game but if everyone thinks it should be "PRO" only....rock on...... My bad for even bringing it up......

Third and fourth fastest classes in NHRA and still get no props....

I do like what you are doing though....

I love the alky classes but just based on comments people had made in the past and the extra workload I opted to only do the 4 pro classes. Maybe next year I can run 2 games, 1 for the pro snobs and 1 for all the hardcore fans which would include pro and sportsman. I'll have to think on that. I guess I have until Feb to decide for that

I dont think anyone is bashing the alky classes by not wanting them in the game. The only reason I would have for them not being included would be for PJ's time.

I'll make a politcally uncorrect post...

If you want it so bad, then you do it for the non-pro classes.
I am sure a lot of people would enjoy picking it.
Don't think anyone isn't giving props though because they don't man up and do it.

Not being a jerk by any means, but I am sure it sounds that way. There just isn't any other way to say it...

No bad thoughts or ill feelings at all meant or intended though.

I think the sportsman classes deserve all the respect in the world. They are racers just like the rest...

 

[PJ]

Sorry for the delay, this whole doing work thing got in the way.

Congrats to NAZ not only for winning this race but for being the first repeat winner of the year. He led the pack by picking 3 of the winners, he would have picked all 4 but thought that may be showing off.

I'm a bit swamoed today so seasons totals will probably not be up until later, sorry

Thanks Justin, thanks PJ. I still have work to do if I want to get to the top.
Man, I would have never ever guessed that'd I'd be a repeat winner before John Force this year or any other year.

I'd love to see the sportsmen classes added to the game, but I can't imagine the work that PJ puts into this as it is now! And thank you PJ, we all are extremely appreciative. Maybe next year we can get you some help & then have the sportsmen included... just a little food for thought.

Kevin, you and all the other sportsman guys and girls get all the respect in the world from me (as much if not even more than the pro's for your hard work, love, and dedication for what you do), and all of the 'Maters feel the same way I'm sure. We love all of you racers & the show you put on for us... keep on doing what you do cause you guys ROCK!!!!

[Nazgul]

Wow, didn't think this weekend would tie me at the top with Justin. We've finally gotten up there with Big Zappy!

I wanted to sneak to the top during the last 2 or 3 races --- now I'm feeling a little pressure.

Man, it's a close contest.

 

[Paul]

Wow, I should have let my 5 year old make my picks .

 

[RickyD]

Sorry to bug ya PJ , I know too well how work can get in the way of life. Somehow my name is in the list twice and only adding on the lower one. Thanks for checking it out. Rick. (RickyD)

 

[PJ]

alright recheck the standings. I've corrected the mistakes, I hope.

With all the name changes I thought I had caught all the duplicates I guess not.
Sorry
