neighborhood league ..who would you pick

[ShinerGrinder]

I would have to know more about scoring. I think Vickers and Dillon will have a better shot at racking up top 20s. Larson may have a better shot at pulling off a W.

Thanks again for the info Old School. Ended up finding a league online and i'm pretty excited about it.

 

[Old School]

scoring is points awarded driver/car each race..

ie..

my championship team last year

season points far right hand corner

below is Homestead last race

Place	Driver	Car #	Race Points	Season Points
9	Jimmie Johnson	48 - Hendrick	35	1248
1	Denny Hamlin	11 - Joe Gibbs	47	809
2	Matt Kenseth	20 - Joe Gibbs	44	1192
11	Jeff Gordon	24 - Hendrick	33	1087
3	Dale Earnhardt, Jr.	88 - Hendrick	42	1144
7	Kyle Busch	18 - Joe Gibbs	37	1163
12	Carl Edwards	99- Roush	32	1118
21	Kurt Busch	78 - Furniture Row	24	1071

league final standings

note..points awarded to car in essence in our league

that way neighbor doesn't loose a driver due to injury fired etc..
keeps peace and everyone clamors around the TV's on race day hoping to be the flyer of the checkered flag outside their house the entire week.

Team Place	Team Previous Place	TEAM WINS	Team Name	Season Points	Points Out of Lead
1	1	10	FRONTROW RACING	8832	0
2	2	5	KIWI RACING	8694	138

leaning Vickers with his experience..

though I would like nothing better than to take Dillon or Larson and win the league like I did w/Rookie Kasey Kane 2004..his cost that year..yep $300,000.00

now that was a great season flying the flag..

ShinerGrinder bring home the championship

 

[ShinerGrinder]

Haha! I'll do my best! I've spent a lot of the past few days starting at driver values and playing with lineups.

I'm now leaning the Larson route myself...

Shiner what league did you join? I'll join too if there is room, maybe we can gather a few people on here in the same group :shrug:

 

[ShinerGrinder]

Prez I was thinking about getting a group of us together on here for a fantasy league. The league I joined was http://www.fantasygames4u.com/ seems legit.

 

[ShinerGrinder]

I have a yahoo league with some buddies as well if anyone's interested in that.

I don't recall any of the veterans praising any up and coming drivers like they do this kid. He just wins... plain and simple.
You mentioned earlier about Kasey Kahne's rookie year. The biggest reason for his early success was none other than Ray Evernham. Think about years ago when Jeff Gordon had so much success and was winning 6,7, or even more races a year and multiple championships. Remember who his crew chief was? What has Jeff done since he lost Ray? Evernham was a genius.
If you are going to base your decision on resources and top notch equipment, I'd probably lean towards Dillion. But if Ganassi puts the right people around this Larson kid and they gel... he is going to have one hell of a rookie season and likely an amazing career in Nascar.

I think it will be cool if you keep track of these OS. Thanks for sharing your time and effort. Shame for Bowyer that his engine blew. Larson got himself in trouble early but rebounded nicely to almost get back on the lead lap and then Dillion dumped him. Long season ahead.
