2025 15th Annual FABO NHRA "Pick 'Em" Game - I Can't Wait!!!

Howdy
Still sad due to lack of a full field in TF
I still say lowest ET in first round gets to run in round 2. I'm thinking Track owners and Networks who paid a ton of money can't be happy.
Just my 2cents.
 
Sticking with 'my locked in picks'
I'm dancing with the ladies, I brought to the dance :lol:

there's no reason to switch now,
I'm middle of the pack
I can't win even when it's at 1-1/2 point value, Pomona

good luck everyone

I think the JFR team will make a statement these last 2 events,
send Britney out in style
especially Pomona, their home track

Howdy very pretty car unfortunately according to the guys no manual available. They did back down after discussing for a bit. So I believe that they didn't have a clue. It was a bummer that they turned off the timing lights, so no ET or speed, bummer.
 
Congratulations to ''GTXDAN' (FBBO), 'memike' (FABO), 'stroked340' (FABO) and 'TT5.9mag' (FABO) for sharing the 2025 NHRA Nevada Nationals Top Qualifier title with outstanding almost-perfect totals of 31.5 bonus points each. They each correctly picked the #1 qualifier in Funny Car, Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle, and the #2 qualifier in Top Fuel.
'Back in Time' (FABO), 'Budnicks' (FBBO) and 'cuda20' (FABO) were right behind with 30.0 bonus points each.

More great picks!

We have 17 players this week and 11 different driver combos made up of:
* 5 different Top Fuel drivers with no Round 1 head-to-head matchups. There is a possible head-to-head matchup in Round 2 of eliminations if both drivers survive Round 1.
* 5 different Funny Car drivers. The earliest possible head-to-head matchup would be in Round 2 of eliminations if both drivers survive.

* 3 different Pro Stock drivers with the earliest possibility of a head-to-head matchup in Round 2 of eliminations if both drivers survive.

* 3 different Pro Stock Motorcycle drivers. The earliest possibility of any head-to-head mathup is the semi-final round of eliminations if the drivers survive.

Good luck all!
 
Holy cow that was some of the closest racing ever. From .000 reaction times to wins by .001. AS almost got GH in PSM final, and where has that performance been for Hagan all year. Smoke was right in there with Brittany until he wasn't. After Brittany won and Bruno talked to Grubby it sounded like they went to Allen Johnson for help and it worked. It's all coming down to Pomona in every class.
 
Congratulations to 'alsant' (FBBO) for winning the "Top Picker Eliminator" title for the 2025 NHRA Nevada Nationals with an outstanding total of 173.5 points. He picked the winners of both Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle, his Funny Car pick lost in the final round of eliminations, and his Top Fuel pick lost in the semi-final round of eliminations. He was also helped with ET bonus points in Pro Stock Motorcycle and Speed bonus points in both Funny Car and Pro Stock Motorcycle.
'GTXDAN' (FBBO), 'memike' (FABO), 'stroked340' (FABO) and 'TT5.9mag' (FABO) all shared the runner-up spot with 161.5 points each.
Way to go!

Way to go @alsant , this was a flip of the coin as to who was going to come out on top with almost all the heavy hitters going to the finals.
 
Nice picking, alsant!
Dan - you're within striking distance!
