I hope 'back in time' is doing ok. Congrats Bud on the 1-2.

I've had #78 Truex as a locked pick for a long time. Don't I get a point for his stage finish?

I double-checked everything from the last race and made changes to the point totals in post #140

Nice job Bud!!!!

Thanks
since I changed my locked in picks
{rarely get to watch a whole race or qualifying}
it's been going the correct direction, UP the list, at-least

I have no comments on the race because I didn't get a chance to see any of it.

Congratulations to both 'alsant' (FBBO), 'cuda20' (FABO) and 'riverdawg' (FBBO) for correctly picking the race winner, #78 Martin Truex Jr.! They each picked up -5.0 bonus points. Good picking!
Nobody picked the race runner-up, #20 Matt Kenseth, so no runner-up bonus points awarded this week.

#18 Kyle Busch won Stage 1 with #78 Martin Truex Jr. coming in second. Stage 2 was won by #19 Daniel Suarez with #78 Martin Truex Jr. coming in second again.
