Congratulations to 'Budnicks' (FBBO), 'Nick2317' (FBBO) and 'stroked340' (FABO) for sharing the 2020 Mopar Finals 'Top Qualifier' title with an outstanding total of 30.5 bonus points each. 'Budnicks' picked the #1 qualifier in Funny Car and the #2 qualifiers in Top Fuel, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle. 'Nick2317' and 'stroked340' went a slightly different route by picking the #1 qualifier in Pro Stock Motorcycle and the #2 qualifiers in Top Fuel, Funny Car and Pro Stock. Way to go!
'johnnycuda' (FABO) grabbed the runner-up spot with 27.5 bonus points.

More great picks!

We have 15 players for the final event of the 2020 NHRA "Pick 'Em game season and 13 different driver combos made up of:
* 5 different Top Fuel drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups. There could be one head-to-head matchup in the 2nd round of eliminations if both drivers survive the opening round of competition.
* 4 different Funny Car drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups. There could be one head-to-head matchup in the 2nd round of eliminations.
* 4 different Pro Stock drivers with two Round 1 head-to-head matchups. One between #5 qualifier Alex Laughlin (1 pick) and #12 qualifier Erica Enders (4 picks). and the other between #8 qualifier Aaron Stanfield (1 pick) and #8 qualifier Jeg Coughlin Jr. (1 pick). There could be one head-to-head matchup in the 2nd round of eliminations as both drivers survive until then.

* 6different Pro Stock Motorcycle drivers with one Round 1 head-to-head matchup between #2 qualifier Matt Smith (5 picks) and #15 qualifier Angelle Sampey (1 pick). There could be one head-to-head matchup in the 2nd round of eliminations.

Good luck all in eliminations!
 
Way to go Bud&Nick !!!


Thanks, my P/S pick Jason Line went out way too early
I hope he enjoys his retirement
I hope Jeggy does too, he went out way to early too
I see a theme brewing here
Elite Racing's Miss Piggy got a 4th P/S (pro-Camaro) Championship,
most for any woman
but;
I uusually always route for almost anyone but her, she's earned it

F/C pick Ron Capps went to the finals too, sort of a shock
teammate DSR's Jack Beckman went out early, narrowing the points race to 2
F/C Tommy Johnson Jr. went rounds, made Matt earn it

I heard DSR's Don Schumacker say
"he will have 8 teams next year/season" I assume 4 in each T/F & F/C classes

all the typical won their class congrats to
T/F Champion S. Torrence,
pretty much had to just go 1 round
F/C Champ Matt Hagan had some competition, all the way to the semi-finals
& finals, all DSR's teammates

P/SM Champion Matt Smith's wife Angie made it to the finals,
in the semis, Matt had problems (already clinched Championship)
on the starting line again

for a shortened & shitty season
it was competitive down to the last event

:thumbsup:

congrats to whomever wins the Pick Em' game championship
