Thanks for your patience waiting for the results from the Midwest Nationals. It's been a busy week at both work and home.
...and the Rams are on Thursday Night football tonight.
I'll get the results posted no later than Friday...but I'll leave you hanging with the fact that everyone, except 1 player, moved positions.

Spoiled kid with grandpas money says he going NASCAR racing next year so he can race more often. No word on whether the Grays will stay in Pro Stock with another driver.

Pro-stock is dying anyway...
probably why they let the mountain motor P/S guys
do the exhibition runs & get feedback from the 500ci guys on it too

Scoring error on the last event - I didn't pick up that '64BEL' locked in new Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle picks. His corrected total for the last event was 107.5 rather than 112.0. Correct game total to date is 2098.5.
The point totals and standings will be correct after this weekend.
Sorry for the confusion.

'stroked340' (FABO) and 'johnnycuda' tied for the runner-up spot with 28.0 bonus points.
We have a visitor, 'gtxracer' (FBBO), playing this week who would have tied for the 3rd spot in qualifying with 26.5 bonus points. I hope he sticks around for the rest of the Countdown and then comes back as a regular player for the 2019 season.
Way to go!!
Good luck all in eliminations tomorrow!
